We have been encouraged by a string of rainy days to savor our morning coffee and eat many relaxed breakfasts lately on the “porch” of our Cooke Custom Sewing Lean 2.
There are always things to do regardless of the weather. On rainy days we are often busy editing and organizing images and video, writing, doing interviews, and producing content in order to share our #wildernessyear to @savetheBWCA with as many people as possible, but most days start with a cup of @stonecreekcoffee and rainy days often warrant a second round.

Good coffee starts with good water, and we are ensconced in the heart of some of the cleanest water in the world. Each morning we fill our pot from the lake, fire up our @biolitestove and begin another day.
Sulfide-ore copper mines, like the ones being proposed along the edge of the Wilderness, have a horrible track record of leaving crumbling communities and acid mine drainage in their wake when the market drops or the mine is played out.

Our jobs and our way of life are at risk. This unequalled maze of Wilderness lakes and rivers, sandwiched between Lake Superior and the Canadian border, is like no other place on earth. It is far too precious to risk and it needs your help. Please sign the petition at http://ift.tt/1x2erSX.
