The Voyageur Hudson Bay Expedition Crew is passing time on God's Lake. They paddled about four miles yesterday afternoon according to the SPOT locator. They aren't in a hurry to get off of God's Lake because they only have about 300 miles left of their 1300 mile journey. Those 300 miles will go quickly because of the strong current pulling them towards Hudson Bay.

I cannot imagine how a lake could be more thrillingly beautiful than God's Lake. No wonder that name - God's country, indeed. Such sights as this are reserved for those who will suffer to behold them. The clear, calm level of the lake stretched as far as our eyes could see and, like the precious stones in a setting of silver, islets reflected the afternoon sun in splotches of color. The air was blue, so blue, as though the sky had settled down to earth.
