I agree with the ...spending less each year at REI...that dividend doesn't equate, with their higher prices compared to many other retailers.

Occasionally at the "OUTLET" you may find a deal, but you don't get the dividend at the outlet.

Get an early start out of N Desor, if possible.

Sounds like a great outing. Enjoy.

Have you tried to access the Tobin Harbor cam?

At just over 1.5 lbs., this is a decent single wall 2 person tent. http://www.ebay.com/itm/MSR-Flylite-2-Person-Shelter-Tent-Blue-BRAND-NEW-WITH-TAGS.-NO-RESERVE-/111966197574?hash=item1a11b49746:g:9tcAAOSwvgdW6Uz9 I have upgraded from my previous https://www.rei.com/product/706620/msr-missing-link-...

I have never taken music into the wilderness. However, some of my "Faves" for various other outdoor activities. Zep, Dylan, the Band, Lou Reed, Bowie, Beatles, Stones, Dave Clark Five - for Rock n Roll. Buddy Guy, BB King, Eric Clapton, SRV - for blues. Hank, Patsy, Johnny, Waylon, Willie,...

That makes good sense!

The Voyaguer II trip seems like a special means of access to the Isle; the many possible stops along the way to Rock Harbor, an experience in itself.

As I recall, some months earlier, there was such a position offered through the U S A Jobs site.

The Isle Royale & Keweenaw Parks Association website, that is linked in johnhens post, has plenty of related reading material to fill a home library. Besides just the guidebook, there is a package of "guidebook, map, & checklist" that is a good deal. I believe they give 10% discoun...

I would also check with Forever Resorts to seek the same.

My guess is that it is not likely that the NPS would allow that many in one group/activity at one time.

I'll second the BIG THANK YOU!

I'm wondering is there a way one can adapt the site, to bring up a link automatically, in a different window, instead of having to right click and "open in another window"?

I would say, that is my "least favorite" function, on the site.

... On another subject, I was reading through about the camp grounds. Is there a problem that there is none open?... I'm not sure if you mean "closed" or "full"? There is always a possibility that in June-August, some camps may be full, but, I believe this would be rare. As far ...

I watched it last night; enjoyable.
