I stumbled across your videos why researching Isle Royale and ended up watching all your videos. I now have a new list of trips to make. Keep on hiking and keep on posting!
Just saw your question on Tim Watson's chat. I stayed at Cliffs the last night, hiked to Munising Falls visitor center to my car, dropped off my pack, went to see Munising Falls, then went to a bagel place in town by 11AM and drove 5 hours home. Cliffs back to the car is a pretty easy hike too so a drive home is totally possible. Happy hiking! Sadly that bagel place is closed now but they had the best bagel sandwiches.
Jay Wanders Out yeah I’m planning a thru hike of the lakeshore trail. Right now I’m going Au Sauble to Sevenmile to Coves to Cliffs. The Coves to Cliffs day is my biggest day, so that was my big question about terrain.
On isle royale the sites that are good for hammocks are few in far between. If you’re asking personally, I just have enjoyed naps in them but even laying “properly” in them, I get sore. So I guess I’m a tent camper for life at this point 😂
This is great man. Thank you for this, we are doing isle Royal in June and I am going to use this as my packing list

I’m new to backpacking and am looking at going to isle royale, what would you say is most important to have among these items?
Sleeping system so tent, bag/quilt and pad are pretty important but you don’t need to spend a ton of money.
Why not use a hammock instead of a tent?

What about food?
Mostly oatmeal coffee and a bar for breakfast, bars for lunch, and dehydrated meals for dinner.
