ALT Gypsy in monochrome on a grassy field of snow, happily searching for mouses
ALT Huskies Zeena and Gypsy take the lead down a snow-covered prairie trail.
ALT Jeff and Gypsy hike along a beach on a wide river. The water is relatively calm, and bright sparkles reflect off the sun just outside the frame in a nearly cloudless sky. Trees in the background are bare.
ALT Two slightly oversized wood sculptures of curly-tailed dogs sit in front of a rustic public restroom building. One is seated calmly while the other is head-down in a canine play-bow. The first dog head, in profile, has rather ursine proportions.
ALT Jeff and Gypsy at the Gunflint Narrows (USFS road 1347) where the Boundary Route Trail crosses. A trail sign announces "Cut Across" (presumably trail name) and Magnetic Rock to the left.
ALT The freshly rebuilt and graded road, with the bridge across that Cross River.
ALT Gypsy wades out into Gunflint Lake near a grassy bit of shallows, with the low hills of Canada across the water.
ALT Zeena investigates the flooded grasses along the edge of Gunflint Lake, with the American side across the water behind her (the right side of the lake).
ALT Gravel road disappears under water with flooded wetland on the left and icy lake on the right.
ALT Zeena appears to be standing on water (but is actually on a rock) on the edge of Poplar Lake at sunset, with pines and other evergreens on the far shore and the lightly rippling water reflecting the salmon colored sky.
ALT Zeena stands in the sun before a chasm in the rock with a footbridge going over it, in the background.
ALT Gypsy and Jeff hike up the hillside on a trail bordered by young evergreens.
ALT Zeena ascends hewen rock stairs, in the shadows between a rock wall and a rocky slope
ALT Gypsy leads Jeff down a series of rock ledges to a flat rock expanse at the edge of the river.
ALT At the base of the falls, a sign reads: SWIMMING NOT RECOMMENDED. Dangerous and unpredictable conditions have taken lives here. Swim at your own risk.
ALT Zeena snoozes on the floor of the cabin in a sunbeam. Gypsy meanwhile sleeps under the picnic style dinner table, in the shade

ALT Jeff and Gypsy emerge from the alder jungle on the side of a flooded bit of gravel road.
ALT Jeff carefully works along the edge of a muddy beaver dam, churned up by trucks that have driven over it. Gypsy meanwhile walks happily through the muck.
ALT Gypsy stands happily up to her knees in the Cross River, a rocky bit of whitewater (barely larger than a stream) with a bridge over the river in the background.
ALT Zeena sniffs the start of the trail, by a wooden sign announcing the "South Lake Trail", which leads onto shadowy evergreen woods.
ALT Large dead tree with a sign on it proclaiming National Forest Wilderness, no motor vehicles, motorized equipment, hang gliders or bicycles.
ALT Zeena ducks under a fallen tree to the edge of Partridge Lake.
ALT Jeff sits on a stump on the edge of Partridge Lake. He has a bright orange buff on his hat for visibility, in case of grouse hunters along the parts of the trail outside the wilderness.
