16th Book Across the Bay starting line. This photo was taken about 15 mins before the start of the race.
View looking west just before the start of the race.
Leader at the first checkpoint (camp fire).
Fishing earlier in the day. These photos were taken by the Mrs. They were taken from shore at a distance of 1.1 miles with a Canon 7D and a Canon 100-400 telephoto. To those who know the bay note the Tetzner's Farm silos in the upper left of the picture. These silos have been used for years as navigational aides for determining one's location. Together with other key landmarks along the Ashland shoreline and the lighthouse "old timers" found their favor fishing spots. With the advent of hand held GPS units they are only used to cross check the GPS.
Myself and Skip checking a tip-up to the west of the truck.
This photo has been 'photoshopped' to zoom in on our fishing spot for the day.
Notice the red arrow on the left side of the photo pointing at the tip-up. If you look close you can make out me sitting next to the 4 wheeler watching the fish finder (black spot 'under' the truck between me and the front wheel in this 2D photo. Pretty cool photo definition taken from 1.1 miles away.
