Isle Royale Wilderness Stewardship Plan


Subscribe:


Isle Royale National Park has drafted their Wilderness Stewardship Plan, with three plan alternatives they want the public to comment on. Comments are being accepted until September 26, 2023. I interviewed Liz Valencia about the Plan, the main points that the general public would be most interested in and how the different alternatives could affect your next trip to Isle Royale.

Links here are to read the plan, and where you can comment on the plan.
