    Kayaking Mackinac Island straights and hanging on Round Island

    I think this was the most adventurous trip I've ever done. It was a lot of fun and I'd suggest it to anyone with the gear to do it when in Michigan! The video will give you an idea of the conditions on Round Island and the fun you can have with the HUGE squirrel population (near end of video). If you want the full story stop by the blog HERE. Hope you enjoy!

    Looks like a cool trip. That's some pretty exposed paddling but a proper adventure for sure. Thanks for sharing.
    Good luck,

    It may have been both on our return trip! I was exhausted when we got back to shore. I was new to sailing and heading straight into the wind. Learned a lot!
