That Duluth Pack looks to me like you are from Northern MN. Best packs out there.
Yes they are... They are sure dang expensive though! Someone had a pile of stuff at the end of their driveway with a 'free' sign a couple of years ago, and there were two Duluth Packs in the pile! Like finding a Northern Minnesota Treasure. :D

Wow, nicely done. Those pics are great. You had a great camp there and I bet that sunshine was welcome.

Last time I winter camped like that was nearly 30 years ago. Elk hunting in NE Washington state with lows near zero. We did have a tent tho no wood stove. Before hitting the sack we had to fill the coffee pot and oatmeal pan with water to heat on the Coleman stove. If not, our water jug would be frozen and could not pour any water out. The coffee pot and pan would fully freeze overnight but a little time on the stove would take care of that. This was early November, not even winter yet. We still call it “the year of the froze”.....

As mentioned earlier your girls will have a great lifelong memory. Of course you Northern Minnesota folks are a hardy breed for sure.
