Left Minocqua this morning at 4:30 am and crossed the border at International Falls/Fort Frances. After landing at Fort Frances and passing customs there, took off for Red Lake where I had all fuel tanks topped off for the long flight to Churchill. The weather did not cooperate, so will continue hopefully tomorrow.
Spent a little part of the afternoon checking out the Norsmans, which this place is famous for. See pictures at bottom of this post.
