Isle Royale Trip 2002
Hiking around the island can be difficult if you not prepared.  My friend and I thought we took the right equipment, but we were caught off guard by the weather.  In September, you should prepare for heavy rains, and temperatures ranging from the 50s up to the 80s. 

Also, make sure to take the right equipment.   You should take 1 more water bottle than you thought.  Water is difficult to reach along the ridges.  Also, you will have to carry a water filter due to tapeworms.

Leave the heavy equipment behind!  After 7 miles along the Minong ridge, I wished I left 15 pounds of equipment back on the docks.

You can purchase some basic needs at the docks and there is a shower available, but thats about it.
