Day 4: Rest Day
• This day will be spent exploring the area around camp, and taking a well deserved lounge in the hammocks.
Day 5: Booth Lake - Farm Lake
• Depart camp in the am. We will cross Booth, Kitty and then a final portage into Farm Lake. Once on Farm Lake we will set camp at the south end of the lake.

This trip can be altered in many ways. It can be turned into a 5 day rather than a 6 day. Also, with advanced notice, a ranger cabin is available for rent for the final evening. We will do a vehicle shuffle prior to our departure, to arrange a vehicle at our take out point, as it is different than our put in.
