I’ve taken the plunge and reserved sites at the rest of the state parks on my itinerary. There’s a good chance I won’t need reservations at all of them, but a couple of the parks were half-full, and I wanted to make sure I got the specific sites I’d picked out. Plus… I’m a bit restless about having to wait two whole months yet, and this was a step to make it feel closer.
I also booked my passage on the Badger for the last night. The only night’s lodging I haven’t nailed down is at Pictured Rocks. The National Park Service doesn’t take reservations for those campsites, so I won’t be 100% sure about that until the day I get there. (I have a commercial campground in the area identified, just in case.)
