One Superior spot

Devil's Island stands out among Apostle Islands, named for thundering waves in its Lake Superior-lapped caves, said to haunt evil spirits.

Ice cave. This was taken in 2014 on a hike across frozen Lake Superior to reach Sand Island. Since 2015, it has not been safe enough to walk across the ice. #IceCave #Ice #Cave #Winter #Cold #Icicle #SandIsland #ApostleIslands #ApostleIslandsNationalLakeshore #LakeSuperior #Bayfield #Wisconsin

Interior of an ice cave. The floor of the cave is sheer ice. The walls of the cave, both left and right, are also covered in ice and the floor of the cave stretches under the wall in the middle on the left. The ceiling is covered is covered with icicles. At the far right, light is coming in through the opening, which is barely visible between the two walls.

Is that a seashell? Is this the ocean?

No, it’s #fungifriday and we’re looking at a little guy on one of the #ApostleIslands! It does look like a seashell though…

Iffy about camping? Here's what a guided camping trip can offer.

For families who want to go camping but hesitate at the thought of figuring everything out on their own, guided camping trips can help the experience go smoothly.

So cold, the wind was intense this morning, but the lake was silver and beautiful. Just a quick sketch with watercolor and ink. Looking out at Basswood Island from Bayfield.
