Re: Getting To The Lights

Stopping by Conneaut late last May, saw that people were accessing once again along the rip-rap breakwall out to the light....... Since you're from Fairport, maybe you'd like to own one of the lights ? The Fairport Harbor West Breakwall lighthouse is once again up for sale under the terms of NHLPA (...

Re: Obscured registration code too obscured.

Well, the code is hard to read, no question......But it's that way for the reasons that Fonix described. I've had to do many of these things, and they are a pain, to be sure....But I got in on the first try. One thing I've learned is to look at them from different angles to be sure (as sure as one c...

Re: IRNP recommends filtering AND chemical treatment?!

Well, Ed, I will make sure I don't sip on any unfiltered/unboiled Isle Royale water for sure ! Thanks for the heads-up about the tapeworms. Is this just a product of Wolf excretment or other animals as well ? As to the Lighthouse photos...... For many years, we were selling some of the best photos, ...

Re: Windigo visitor center

I too recall going 'up the hill' to that building back when we were there....I don't have a photo of it, however.....

The only Windigo photos I have in my files is the obligatory shots of us by the big sign....

Re: IRNP recommends filtering AND chemical treatment?!

Years ago I remember a ranger saying that he just drank the water out of Superior directly, but recommended filtering. Bob A few years back, I was out on the mile & a quarter breakwall to photograph the Ashtubla Lighthouse on Lake Erie. It started easy, but soon enough I had to climb over some ...

Re: Getting To The Lights

Thanks for the replies, fellas.....We're leaning towards a charter as the best way to do this. Our past charters have found the Captains friendly and accommodating, and knowledgeable about their areas.

Getting To The Lights

Greetings, Ye Adventurers of Isle Royale..... I came across this site by accident while looking for information on the the area. I should explain..... My wife and I are lighthouse photographers (I do most of the shots, she does most of the scheduling). For the past decade, we have been on a mission ...
