Isle Royale - Backpacker's Dream

Hi Laura:

Have you ever been backpacking?

Me, no, but that is on my list for before I die. Glad to see there is some info out there. At age 53, finally realizing I have to begin to make time to do some things.

Love your site!!!

Hi Angela,

Thanks for stopping by!

Yes, I have been backpacking. But it was a very long time ago! I enjoyed it thoroughly, but I definitely think it's an activity better suited to those younger and more agile than I have become. I admire your desire to try it now. And you couldnt' go wrong with Isle Royale as a great site to try it out.... :-)
