This awesome 36″musky was caught on Ghost Lake on a fly rod, July 12 by Erik Griffin of Missouri. Erik and his family have been coming to spend their week long summer vacation at Boulder Lodge for the past four years.

Last weekend, a really nice family camped at Boulder Lodge for a few days. The weather was a little on the chilly side for mid- July but on the last day of their vacation, the sun was shining and it reached 80 degrees so the kids finally got to swim and play in the sand. Then they got creative and built this beautiful sand castle. Thank you Messenger family.
