We did the Lake of the Woods ride
Did a 154 mile jetski ride on Lake of the Woods July 21 with HCS member PraireRenegade and his dad. I attempted to video tape the ride with a goggle mounted bulletcam but water and fogging of the lens became a problem...gave up taping early in the ride...need to figure out something to solve this for future jetski rides.

Re: We did the Lake of the Woods ride
Cool I bet that was an awesome, scenic ride!! I will be up there this time next month and cant wait to see the giant rocks, cliffs and unmolested forests along with great fishing, drinking and probably a bit of jetskiing.

That looks like a lot of fun, how many days did you spend on the ride?

Took off out of Young's Bay Northwest Angle at about 10:00 am and was back by about 5:00 pm...roughly 7 hours.

Re: We did the Lake of the Woods ride
Damn! I would love to go up there!!! I don't think I would lug the jetski, just the poles and other supplys...

Too nice up there!

It was a fun ride...12 people said they wanted to do the ride when I put the ride offer together but only 3 of us showed up to do it.
