With all the camping gear in the kayak, or most of it, including the stove and pot top on the deck. The kayak rode well with all the gear.

While most of Big Pond is part of the Middle Mountain Wild Forest, about 200 feet of shore line is privately owned. The folks in the cabin where really friendly when they stopped by in their electric pontoon boat, but it did kind of wreck the scenic view especially from where I was camping.

Here we go again paddling across the lake.

Good Morning on Big Pond.

The early rays of sun have yet to hit it on this beautiful morning.

Man covers his eyes as he looks out across the water.
