Visit Isle Royale

Flight event

Ever visited Isle Royale National Park? Chances are you haven't — unless you were around for this event last time. It is consistently among the five least-visited National Parks in the United States.

This one takes us back to Lake Superior and the northern Midwest. It's a crossfire-style seaplane flight between our two featured fields: Cook County at Grand Marais (KCKC, or the seaplane base 0G5) and Houghton County (KCMX). Depart either one, fly out to and around Isle Royale to take in the scenery, and land at the other. Seaplanes are recommended but not required, and low and slow is the idea.

Read the brief for flying around the island (stay at 2,000 ft AGL or higher over the park) and for the seaplane departure areas at both ends.

5-8pm Eastern on Sunday 25 October, which is 2200-0100z.
