Hey guys, I am planning to go to Isle royale for around a week in a couple of weeks. I can't backpack as all the stuff I have is pretty heavy, so the other option I have is to paddle around in a kayak. Now, I called up a few places for the rental, and it seems the cost is around $50/day. So even if ...
