Re: Early bugs, spring 2010

Black flies in May, Copper Harbor yes, but I have never had a problem with them on IR until June. I have had more trouble with mosquitoes on the Island than Black flies and No-seeums.

Re: Ticks

When I hike and camp around the country my worries are Bears,Cougars,Skunks and Ticks. On IR the only concern I have are mosquitoes and Black Flies. No problem though since I am on the Island before and or after the bugs are out. Isle Royale is wonderful!!!

Re: Pictured Rocks!

Depending on when and how long you are going to be in Munising they have a Pictured Rocks boat cruise that will take you out to see the cliffs and formations.I think it lasts about 3 hours?
