John-we were so far north that here were no Elk in the area. The only mammals up there are Black and Polar Bears, Caribou, Wolves, Fox, and Rabbits. The hot tub was broken, so no pictures of me with a cigar. Besides, the Cuban Monte Cristos were too expensive-$27.00 each. The fishing on the other hand was great. My friend and I both lost several monster Northern Pike that were over 45 inches long. We were required by law to use barbless hooks, and since we were using medium weight tackle(8 lb. test line)weren't able to get any of the huge ones into the boat. My friend did land a 41 incher though. We also caught some very nice Lake Trout that went up to 44 inches, and almost 40 pounds. They were a lot of fun on the medium tackle. The Walleye fishing was the best I've ever experienced! They averaged 3 to 5 pounds, and some went up to 11 pounds. The longest one we landed was 30 inches. The meals were excellent. The day started off at 6:30 AM, with our guide bringing a pot of hot coffee to our cabin. Breakfast was at 7:00, and consisted of hot or cold cereal, eggs, bacon, sausage, hot cakes, juice, tea or coffee, and toast. Lunch was a shore lunch which usually was Walleye filet that you caught that morning, fried potatoes w/ diced onions, pork & beans, corn, and fruit cocktail. Dinner in the evening varied from Chicken Cordon Bleu, to Prime Rib, Steaks, Roast Turkey Breast, Ham Steaks and Pork Chops, Spare Ribs, etc. The only meals that were repeated for dinner, were the steaks and prime rib. The cabins were very comfortable, with each person having a queen size bed, with a firm mattress and clean sheets and down comforter. There was daily maid service as well. Each cabin also had electric baseboard heat in the bathroom, and a wood stove in the bedroom. My friend and I questimate that in the 8 days of fishing, we landed somewhere between 4 and 5 hundred fish. It was, without a doubt, the best fresh water fishing I ever experienced.
