Westward & Wisp

Hey everyone,

I’m probably not getting out on an overnight in the next little bit, but I did manage a couple of day trips over the past few weeks. I got over to Westward and down to Wisp, both new lakes for me. It was fun, but it also just makes me miss actual camping. On the plus side, I did arbitrarily rename (or just name, I suppose) two ponds along the way, so that’s pretty exciting.

Anyways, the report is up now here:

Re: Westward & Wisp

Thanks Drew, been a while since i've had one of these TRs to enjoy.  You'll have to lobby Jeff M with respect to Soaker and Batman.  Both seem like reasonable choices.  I have to say though, when I was looking at Westward on the map I noticed Guskewau L. along with a note that "Guskewau means darkness".  So you maybe have some competition from Conrad in the best name category.

Thanks Gord,

I’ll start lobbying Jeff now to get those names on the next version of the map. I’d never noticed Guskewau on the map before, but that’s a pretty awesome name too. I’m willing to split the best name award between it and Soaker Pond.
