Isle Royal: Least Visited; Most Revisited
Just an interesting fact that I heard from a Park Ranger on Island Royal...

Re: Isle Royal: Least Visited; Most Returns
I believe it also has one of the longest visitor stay periods.

Re: Isle Royal: Least Visited; Most Returns
I've always tried to find statistical proof of this statement, but never have. Of course my only research was since rudimentary Google searches...
I believe half of this statement, while I think the first half should be modified...
"Isle Royale is ONE OF the least-visited National Parks, but the most revisited."
It would seem to me there are a few National Parks in Alaska that probably see less visitors on average than Isle Royale does. But the fact that it is the most revisited I think I can personally vouch for...along with many others on this very forum. Just take a look at how many times some of the posters here have revisited Isle Royale, and I think you'll get my drift...
