I had a custom frame mat made for my first trip to IRNP.

Did they forget to take off the lens cap?

There is a small chance this trail will be changed to decommission the section that connects the lake Richie trail to the SE lake Richie portage access (the trail would travel from CH to lake Richie portage point). It seems like they will not close this trail but you may want to do it asap. It’s on ...

A group doing the inland lakes said the campsites were fairly empty, and another group finishing up the ...
