Hey Nick,

You said Island Mine was in the bottom two for campsites. What's the other one?

My first trip was in 2005. Mostly good memories: Watching the Northern Lights at the VII marina, Meeting John and Tricia, Seeing 5 moose including the pair just above E. Chickenbone (up close, I mean within 25 feet), Meeting Matt & Erika, swimming in Desor, shower at Windigo, steaks at the Beave...

I'm pretty sure Jerry and I are coming back in September. We have Joe from the softball team on board and hoping to convince Eric to come along too. Plans are to bring canoes and go from McCargo - Chickenbone - Lake Ritchie - Intermediate Lake - Wood lake - Siskiwit to Malone. Canoeing, Fishing, Rel...

Check out our trip report "Kari and Wally's trip report". We traveled to the island at the end of August and did the Feltmann Loop. You've gotten a lot of info in this thread already so I won't repeat it. It's a good idea that you are starting to plan the trip already, because you'll be be...

I would like to upgrade my GPS with the topo feature. It would also be nice to get my ticket on the VII paid for in advance. Hint Hint.

I witnessed a guy pull a good sized (2 foot +) fish out of Feltmann Lake this year and saw a guy with fish at Chickenbone in 2006.

Why wouldn't the wolves view us as a potential meal? I've come into a camp completely exhausted and would have been easy pickings. We prepare foods that smell appealing, We sit on rocks and gaze lazily at the beauty in front of us. We are smaller than the moose. There are lots of single hikers and o...

John & Tricia,

Thanks for the awesome TR and pics. I hope to make it to Malone some day. Your pictures just confirms the reasons why it's on my list of places to visit. You are still my number one source for IR answers. Thanks.

I'll book earlier next year! Thimbleberries everywhere once you got off the Greenstone. There were also mosquitos, something I really never had to deal with on previous trips.

I went to book this year’s Isle Royale trip only to find out the Voyageur II was full for the day I wanted to leave. I looked at the trip again, readjusted the days and called to book passage again on the Voyageur. This time, the date coming home was full. UGH! Instead of spending 5 nights and 6 day...

I tried to send myself a package and it wasn't there when I got to Windigo. It came back to me via the US Mail about a week later. I have left a small stuff sack of food at Rock Harbor at the Ranger Station. I also saw a duffle bag left in a shelter at Windigo. The note said we could use the shelter...
