Re: Bushwacking From Lookout Louise to Blake Point

Thanks for the reply. Do you recall the length of time it took you to complete the bushwack? This would really help me out. I assume you had a full pack....?

Rock Harbor Restuarants

Anyone ever grab a bite in Rock Harbor at the restaurants operated there? I'd welcome some feedback. I understand the price will be higher, but what's the quality of chow there?

Re: Bushwacking From Lookout Louise to Blake Point

Thanks for the replies fellas. Much to consider in the next couple months. Weather depending I may make the attempt; and yes i'll take pictures of the terrain and pass it along as to eliminate doubt. Maybe they'll name a trail after me........or just mark my grave!

I plan on traversing the island and would like to fish, but read in many forums that off shore and inland isle fishing is not too productive. I do enjoy the tranquility of fishing. Has ...
