"Through My Eyes" - The Isle Royale Journals

      The Isle Royale Journals are the notes that I took while visiting the park, along with the stories of the trips.  They are taken directly from the journals I maintain while on the island.  As part of my journals, I record details on the trails or water routes, campsites and other details.  These for the most part, are not included in these journals.  They are used in my document, "A Comprehensive Guide to Isle Royale National Park".  For complete detailed descriptions of trails, campsites, places and basically everything you need to know about the park, that is the document you need to get. 

      At this point, only two are complete and in released form.  The others are simply trip reports in a rough form.
