Re: Solo Trip in May

Fonix is correct. I knew I couldn't keep this a secret forever. :lol: I lost my tent off the back of my pack during a bushwack out of Angleworm Lake in June 2011 and nervously made it to Daisy Farm for the safety of the shelters. With my remaining trip itinerary in jeopardy, I seriously debated head...

Re: Isle Royale video from 1928

That incline railway is called a funicular. The only funicular I have been on was in Davos, Switzerland.
