Exploring Isle Royale National Park

  1. Exploring Isle Royale National Park Big Blend Radio Network 44:11

Celebrate Parks & Recreation Month with this episode of Big Blend Radio’s “Global Adventures with Debbie Stone” Podcast covering her recent visit to remote Isle Royale National Park in Michigan. Isle Royale is one of the most remote and least-visited national parks in the country, averaging twenty to thirty thousand visitors annually.

Established as the nation’s 25th national park in 1940, Isle Royale sits in the northwestern portion of Lake Superior and preserves more than 130,000 acres of land designated as wilderness. The park consists of one large island surrounded by over 450 smaller islands and encompasses 850 square miles. This includes submerged land, which extends four-plus miles out into the largest freshwater lake in the world.
