Hiking in the Dark 2004

Hiking back to Daisy Farm from the Ojibway Tower in the dark. The quote of the trip is here as Dave asks "If a man is alone on Isle Royale with no women around, is he still wrong?" Classic.

Daisy Farm and Ojibway Tower 2004

After 5 and a half to 6 hours on the boat we finally make it to our campground for the night, Daisy Farm. It was a perfect sunny October day. After setting up camp, we went for a hike to Ojibway Tower. It was so relaxing just sitting up there watching the sunset.

Going around Blake Point2004

Here we are making the turn around Blake Point and heading towards Rock Harbor.


Blake Point and Passage Island

I am roaming around the cabin some more and then about 3pm we see Blake Point. As we go around on this clear day we can see Passage Island. I hope to make a stop there on my next trip.

Heading for Blake Point

As we continue on the north side of the island I take some time to read the info on the walls of the VII.
