The ability to merge two users may require a specialized extension to this phpBB forum. I'll defer your question to fonixmunkee who is more knowledgeable in this area. We could rename your original username to be "bobcat1" and this would affect 29 of your oldest posts. Then we could rename...

Re: Leaving from Copper Harbor but want to hike Windigo to RH

Seaplane or Voyageur II ferry are your only two options to get from Rock Harbor to Windigo, if you are dead set on traveling from Copper Harbor. Check out this thread for more logistic options to get from one end of the island to the other. Link ---> https://isleroyaleforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&am...
