It looks like I'll be going on a trip to Flin Flon on the MB/SK line 
during the first week of June.  This will be a radio/fishing trip and I 
would like to bring the rover up there. Dad suggested that we could take 
some time in getting up there, so I may be able to activate some juicy 
grids on the way.  I'd like to bring my FSK441 gear for 2m, as well as 
work the summer Es on 6.  I'm not sure of the Flin Flon grids (can 
someone find out for me? looks like DO95-ish), but it looks like it's an 
easy MS shot to the upper midwest, Great Lakes area, and even into upper 
W7.  I would also stand a descent shot of working the NLRS region on 
Aurora, dispite it being near the solstice.  If anyone knows any 6m/2m 
ops in the area I would like to get in touch with them.  If you get a 
chance, you might look through your log and see if you can dig up any 
callsigns.  I'd really apprecieate any help I can get!
