Re: First time trip in July 5 nights itinerary help pls

I'd suggest something like this route: Night 1: Daisy Night 2-3: McCargoe Night 4: Moskey Basin Night 5: 3 Mile McCargoe has more to offer in terms of exploration and things to do, so I'd suggest spending more time there.

Re: Toilet Paper

Most of the outhouses I've encountered on the island have been surprisingly nice. That said.... One trick I've come up with is to put a matchbook in the plastic bag with your TP.

Re: data Minong

In 2002, my friend and I went from Little Todd to N. Desor when we were in fantastic shape. We noted how it was some of the toughest terrain we've ever hiked- even more than the southern portion of the AT & areas in Glacier. We planned on staying at N. Desor but ended up going to Washington Cree...

Re: Favorite Mountain House meals

Beef stroganoff with some of the Idahoan instant potatoes (that comes in the $1 packet) mixed in is great.

Glad somebody else found my "secret" spot. Where's the cabin located? If you walk along the harbor's edge from the shelters towards Superior you will find it. This picture may help in orientation: < Lake Superior - Campground/shelters > https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/gEdhKtxaMeDQ01bKZV...
