Awesome story and great pictures.  It makes me want to go back, bad.  The only thing I would add is take rubber boots.  Walking through the muskeg (like walking on a soaking wet sponge) pretty much guarantees that you'll have standing water in any other type of boots.

Nice bucks!  Thanks for sharing.  You guys end up harvesting any bucks based out of the three-sided shelter?
