Day One: August 17
The first day and last day are always the most work. When canoeing
through Rock Lake to get to Pen Lake, we came by some huge rock cliffs,
so we took some pictures. Apparently, there are indian paitings visible
on the rocks, but we couldn't find them.

Day Two: August 18
A waterfall runs along the portage at the end of Pen Lake.
The waterfall empties into a fairly deep area that is great for swimming.
We swam there and later saw a huge snapping turtle. It was quite big,
about 3ft long and came up right by our campsite.
