Well, so here's the rest of the story. Since we weren't able to make it to Isle Royale as we planned due to our wheelbearing issue on the way up, holding us up overnight. So, after we fished away the rest of the day on Friday, on Saturday we went exploring the very northern end of the Keweenaw on the 2 tracks. Copper Harbor isn't the farthest point on the Keweenaw, just the end of civilized roads and the last village. It's about 8 or 9 miles out of Copper Harbor on 2 tracks to High Rock Bay, the the farthest north and east you can go on the Keweenaw. Very remote there, I can only imagine how it would be during a storm. We fished in every river and every lake in the northern half on our 2 track excursion. We got back to the campground around 2 pm and hitched to the boat and dumped it in Lake Superior at the Copper Harbor state harbor. What an experience!! It makes you feel so small!! We only had 4' waves, one could only imagine the storm swells that occur out there. So we took our little 19' boat out and around the Keweenaw and looked at the stuff we saw from the 2 tracks from the water's perspective. I unfortunately forgot my phone on the boat so I couldn't get any pics of that. We finished out the day on Lake Superior in our boat, and then came back just before dark to the campground where we enjoyed a nice campfire. The next morning we packed up all of our stuff and hit the road for home around 10 AM. After a 10ish hour drive, we arrived home. Can't wait to try again next year!!

PS: all of these pictures are of and on the way to High Rock Bay. I found the triangle shaped rock along Lake Superior at High Rock Bay. Anyone think it may be a tomahawk or axe head that was smoothed out by the lake? It immediately caught my eye as all of the other rocks are round and smooth as shown in the pictures

Today's Featured Article - Trailering Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. One of the fun things of summer and fall are the parades and tractor shows that go on across America. Many owners of tractors travel long distances to attend these shows and they usually take their restored iron along with them. Safe trailering practices and inspections will ensure that the event is a fun one. A good habit to develop when using a trailer is to give that �quick look over� before taking it on a trip. Before hooking up to it check the tongue for proper operation. The latche
