Re: TR: Late May 2023
I agree there seemed to be more first timers / inexperienced hikers on the trail this May vs the last couple. I didn't find the island to be too busy for the first week, I didn't see another person for the first six days there. SO did anyone else meet the kid who fell in the Big Siskiwit River tryi...

Re: TR: Late May 2023
hooray, and thank you, for the season's first trip report! Maybe we should start a crowd-sourced, color-coded map of false reports and where we heard them, so we can figure out which parts of the Island are populated by the trustworthy. Since I take you to be trustworthy, I want to ask: What color ...

Re: TR: Late May 2023
Thanks for the correction. At least some things were true! I saw a sign prohibiting firearms, but maybe it was just for a building

Re: 5 Day Menu
I am revisiting this string to update on my total loss of appetite on hiking trips (see above). Maybe this will be helpful to those who have suffered from the same. I did great on my last trip! Unfortunately, I changed so many things I have no idea which really helped. In any case, here are the modi...

Windigo to IM for two nights, with a day hike to Siskiwit and then back to Windigo. We kicked off our trip with another delicious meal at the Angry Trout in Grand Marais and then ove...

first ferry get off?
Does anyone know if the Grand Portage ferry’s first run went off? I leave on it on Friday. I know in the past that i’ve has delayed the first ferry. I doubt that is the case this year, but looking for confirmation.

Re: 5/19-5/29 2023 [Hiking]
Cool Jerry. If I do the Feldtmann loop, I might bump into you if you do it counterclockwise. Otherwise, there is always a chance I see you at Hugginin Cove if you are doing that at the tail end of your trip. Either way, whether we cross paths or not, I hope you have a wonderful trip Great. We will ...
