​
The Abbie men purchased some fresh herring and whitefish from their new Norwegian friend to provision their onward journey. At 8:30 AM, with help from their Norwegian fisherman host, the crew got the Abbie out of the river and back into Superior. At noon they stopped at Grand Marais, Minnesota. At the end of the day, they stopped at a protected cove they dubbed Agate Cove. They struggled to find enough driftwood for a fire.
