Isle Royale – Michigan, September 2017

Fortunately, there was no storm or wind creating large waves or we would not have been able to take the ferry to Isle Royale NP. We did have overcast and light showers at times, but also sunshine so the trip over and back went fine. It is a long ride of 3.5 hours each way with about 3.75 hours on the island. After eating a quick lunch near the visitor center there, I took the 4.5 mile roundtrip hike out to Scoville Point, on the eastern end of the island, while Janet stayed in the area around the visitor center and lodge. Neither of us was feeling well as we each had a bad cold/cough/???. Since I didn’t start immediately on the hike, I definitely had to hurry to make sure I was back in time to catch the ferry as they would not wait! Fortunately, I got back with about 20 minutes to spare! It is a place worth seeing and perhaps we will come again someday!
