Failed

Video from August trip to Door County, just found time to upload. I guess getting sick has benefits.
The island shown in the video is wonderful, no motorized traffic of any kind. Various trails allow you to walk the entire outside loop of the island in less than three hours. There are nice beaches, picnic areas and tent camping. A very short boat trip takes you to the island where you can spend a few hours, the day or several days. The walk from the lighthouse down to the beach is exciting and well worth the few nervous points along the way. This is, by far, the better part of Door County. The northern side of the peninsula is for tourists, stay away if you want any kind of an outdoor experience. If you like dozens of expensive shops selling trinkets at inflated prices to rich city folks who think they are experiencing Walden then spend your time there but I would head for Washington Island and Rock Island.
