Kettle River Minnesota

kettleriver1

This is the Kettle River that passes near the seasonal campground where we keep our camper. In case you don’t know around here ’seasonal campgrounds’ are places where you essentially park your camper for the entire season. It’s sorta between going to a new place every time you go camping, and having a cabin, which most keep for many years if not a life time.

It was our first trip up there for the season to get things opened up. Our main camper which we’ve had for a year now survived the winter just fine. No snow damage, all appliances worked, and no rodent infestation, always a concern when you leave a camper unattended for a long time. Also moved our pop-up camper which is used by our younger kids their friends back to the edge of the woods. It’s a lower area a hundred feet from the Horn River and spring time flooding has occurred there in the past.

Looking forward to many more trips up there, and hope to bring back some interesting photos.
