TRIP REPORT: Part 1 of 4.  I am still on the way back home after my most recent trip to Isle Royale. Here is the summary:
Day #1: Took Voyager II (Grand Portage MN to Windigo). Spent night at Windigo.
Day #2: Rainy, stormy, day. Stayed hunkered down in a shelter at Windigo.
Day # 3: My goal was to hike from the Windigo dock to the Rock Harbor dock (41 to 42 miles) in just one day via the Greensone Ridge Trail (at age 60...and carrying a pack with all essential gear and 3 days of food). For many reasons, I only made it to Daisy Farm. (34 miles)
Day # 4: Hiked Daisy Farm to Rock Harbor (7 miles).
Day # 5: Rock Harbor to Todd Harbor (via McCargoe Cove) using the Minong Ridge Trail (roughly 22 miles)
Day # 6: Todd Harbor to North Lake Desor. (10.7 miles)
Day # 7: North Lake Desor to Windigo dock. Rainy. Foggy. Yucky day. About 13 miles).
Day # 8: Hung out in Windigo
Day # 9: Left Windigo via Voyager II to Grand Portage MN.
