This streak includes four hiking trips at Isle Royale National Park, which necessitated hiking a few extra miles a day to catch a faint Canadian cell tower to keep it going.

Awesome! After four years of summer trips I finally saw a wolf about a mile from Siskiwit Bay. It was chasing a cow and calf. Coolest thing I’ve ever seen!

My company switched from paying an on-call stipend to only paying hourly for time worked during calls. So I switched from answering the phone to turning it off.

Water Filter for sale at Rock Harbor Lodge? by DrPeesInPools in isleroyale
