My partner and I will be driving by Lake Superior twice this summer: late May
and mid-July. We're particularly interested in Isle Royal NP, but understand
there are some other venues for expedition kayaking. We'll have the kayaks and
gear we need, but we've never been to Lake Superior and only know what we've
read here-- that the water is very cold and the weather can be horrible just
about anytime! Will trying to paddle Isle Royal in May allow us to beat the
bugs or is it likely to get us blown off the planet? Has anybody tried or have
info on making the crossing to Isle Royal from Canada? Looks like it's less
than a 20-mile paddle at one point. I don't think the ferries run in May.
