Scouting the Wisconsin/Michigan Border
by spankatolla
Left Mendota by 7 am and reached Murray’s landing of the Turtle flambeau by 2 pm. Wind was 20 mph out of the SW. Talked with a kayaker that was on his way out and he emphasized huge white caps on the main part of the lake. I decided we would take one of the first two sites. We settled on the second campsite (P39). Set up the dining fly in record time due to the flies. Got the tent set up and went swimming due to 95 degree heat. Ahh!!!! Carmen and Alex went to the toilet and couldn’t make it due to the wonderful flies biting. We would be confined to the dining fly or tent for the next two days due to the flies. We cooked fillets on the grill and had dinner with pasta salad and potato salad. Went to bed around 10:30. Hot, Hot, Hot!!!!!
