You're welcome. It's just a little spur trail from Feldtmann Lake. Flat and a quick hike without a pack.

The best place for raspberries in late August/early September. IMHO, YMMV.

Uff-Da!

The ferry doesn't continue to Rock Harbor?
That time of year they run a reduced schedule. On weekends they just go to/from Windigo. From their website http://isleroyaleboats.com/schedule.asp :

I will be hiking with one other person. Both of us are experienced backpackers but neither of us have been to Isle Royale.

I'm planning a trip to Isle Royale leaving from Grand Portage on September 25th. I will need to return to Grand Portage on Thursday the 29th. Curious to know what routes folks would recommend.

Thanks in advance. Looking forward to being a part of the community.
