Has anyone been to Wright Island?
The 2007-2010 Greenstone shows a day use dock. I do not believe the previous years showed one (I have to dig them out). The original trails illustrated map shows 2 structures and no dock. The revised trails illustrated map shows 1 structure and no dock. I am curious what is actually there if anyone has been there. Thanks!

Hey Mike, nice to see you around.
If you look on page 3 or 4 of the album, I have a few pics of Wright.

RE; Wright Islands
Only one building remains at "Wrights", the historic "main" log cabin. Although daytime docking is allowed there, the site is still an inholding of Karen Holte, whose maternal Grandfather, Sam Johnson, fished from and occupied the property . Sam occupied Wrights from the late 1800's or early 1900's and was succeded by Ed and Ingeborg Johnson Holte and their daughter Karen
