Thanks for the correction, Mandolyn, as well as the history!

I can just recall this June that Jackie of the Superior Diver was going to go over an "check in on it" to make sure all was OK. They must be active with IRNHA as well as IRBA...

My bad!

I've never been back to it after we worked on it, so I'm glad to know people still care for it. I hope to get back there someday.

It was a really great project to be involved in because the "before" and "after" made it so easy to feel like you made a difference. Other work projects, like campground maintenance, are really important, too, but you end up with a lot of folks scattered around the camp doing this and that (like scraping the inside of outhouses for re-painting... my specialty!) and there's not the same sense of team accomplishment that comes from all pulling together on a single building.

Intersesting thread given that I choose explore ISRO by boat and ironic because I have eight Boundary Waters Wilderness Area trips under my belt.
