Adam Hansen, of The Three Jakes (a canoeing group

7/21/08 – Adam Hansen, of The Three Jakes (a canoeing group usually comprised, oddly enough, of four former Sawbill Crew members, only one of which is actually called Jake), sent us these photographs from this year’s annual trip. Over the last 12 years they’ve chronicled their adventures in a homemade book called “I’m In! The Story of The Three Jakes,” which is full of goofy snafus, cryptic inside jokes and crazy pictures. This year they ended up on Cherry Lake, near the Border Route, where Adam said they saw the full array of Boundary Waters wildlife, a moose, a bear, eagles galore, and had an all-around madcap good time, as usual. Thanks Adam! – Lee
