Default Camping on Madeline Island

Sounds like a blast.

Hey, if you run into weather on the way by (either direction) our hanger is
empty until Friday night, just give me a call and I can get the line guys to
you inside at STE.

Hopefully you'll be home before the upcoming heat wave.

So, tomorrow morning, at 0-dark-thirty, my 15-year-old son and I are
blasting off for "Up North" -- in this case, Madeline Island, just
off-shore in Lake Superior. Atlas is loaded to the gunwales with
bikes, tents, coolers, food -- you name it. We've got two days.

Mary and I went there a couple of years ago, and had a very nice time.
We had no transportation, however, so we only saw the main city
(LaPointe), and not much else.

This time, Joe and I have packed our mountain bikes, and are planning
to see the whole island. I've verified that camping is allowed on the
airport, and the weather looks good, thus far.

Anyone camped on Madeline Island? Any "must sees" or "must dos"?

Thanks!
