I went on a canoe trip into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of Northern Minnesota and took a nice picture of my EDC from Fiddleback. Here are a couple of pics that you might like.

Had a great time, ate way too many meals of fresh walleye, I am now spoiled and the fishing around here just isn't going to be as good.
 
I used to live in MN and the BWCA is still one of my favorite places in the world!

Thanks for the pics - walleyes are such good eating...
 
BWCA is awesome. We would portage out of Ely and sometimes stay at Jackpine lodge on Snowbank. Great lake trout at 100ft on Snowbank, eyes would bug out from the pressure difference when you caught them. Kind of oily but smoke up great !!!!!

Haven't been up there in years, miss it. Especially the shorelunch.

Great pics thanks for sharing.

I'll tell you that nothing makes a knifemaker happier than seeing his work being used on trips like this!
 
I was hoping you wouldn't mind Andy. The EDC has a nice patina on it now from a wonderful rare sirloin steak that we had the first night of the trip.
