Superior sailing: Timing is everything in Wisconsin's Apostle Islands

Article Abstract:

A sailing experience of a tourist who was on a week-long cruise at the Apostle Islands, a largely undeveloped area managed by the National Park Service and known for its unique assortment of 19th-century lighthouses, is narrated. The Apostle Islands National Lakeshore is a compact 21-island chain located off Bayfield, Wisconsin, a cozy sailing town that has more sailboats than year-round residents.

Sound of silence

Article Abstract:

A survey of coastline from Strait of Juan de Fuca to the Strait of Georgia was conducted to find out if there was a northwest passage from the Pacific into the Atlantic. The world's greatest cruising ground protected from the ferocity of Pacific storms was discovered with its raw beauty of maze of islands, bays, inlets, creeks and rocks that make up the present day Desolation Sound National Park.
