slides[5] = new Slide("06", "<ref>Trumpeter swans have made a remarkable comeback</ref> since they were re-introduced to the Seney Wildlife Refuge.  When I was last here (early June 2001) I don't recall seeing very many. This time though there most have been hundreds. A portion of Pool E is shown here. 12:10.");
slides[6] = new Slide("07", "You can get a somewhat better sense of the <ref>size of Pool E</ref> from this photo. SOme people wonder if the massive increase in Trumpeter swan population has contributed to the increase in loon nest failures. 12:11.");

slides[11] = new Slide("12", "<ref>Looking upstream along the creek that feeds the Canyon Falls waterfall.</ref> The trail along the Canyon Falls Gorge is an easy stroll. In about 10 minutes you reach the waterfalls which drop into a small, narrow gorge. 18:45.");
slides[12] = new Slide("13", "<ref>Canyon Falls.</ref> You can't get the best look at these falls, but this is not bad. Water levels are low now and it clearly has not rained much. When water is high I suspect the waterfalls extends further into the background. 18:54.");

// June 24
slides[13] = new Slide("14", "<ref>The Mountain Bluet.</ref> This ornamental exotic, that is non-native, flower, is spreading beyond Rock Harbor, Isle Royale. Park rangers are trying to control and limit the spread of this pretty exotic flower. 13:48.");

slides[15] = new Slide("16", "<ref>Loons in Tobin Harbor.</ref> This most ancient of bird species is always a pleasure to behold. Besides their wonderful set of calls they are pretty and can do things no other waterfowl do like dive to depths of 300 feet. They have solid bones instead of hollow ones and need to use water as a runway for takeoffs and landing. They're woefully suited to travel on land. 14:47.");
slides[16] = new Slide("17", "The sun is beginning to set <ref>behind the clouds over Tobin Harbor.</ref> This harbor is a great place to listen to and watch loons. Luanne spied a nest on an offshore island - a week later the eggs on that nest would both hatch. 20:48.");

slides[17] = new Slide("18", "<ref>Looking back towards Snug Harbor (part of Rock Harbor)</ref> while walking out to Scoville Point on the Stoll trail. The morning would remain foggy sometimes adding a touch of mystery to the surroundings. 10:47.");
slides[18] = new Slide("19", "Isle Royale has had people visiting for nearly 7,000 years. <ref>One of the biggest draws, especially during prehistoric times, was fairly easy access to native copper</ref>. Ancient peoples would dig pits like this one and hammer out bits of copper. Sometimes they would heat the rocks and then pour frigid Lake Superior water over them to fracture the rock and copper. Copper was used for tools and ornaments including fishhooks, knives, and beads. 10:52.", 1000, 646);
slides[19] = new Slide("20", "As Joe and I walked along the Tobin Harbor trail we both, from completely different spots, <ref>had a chance to watch these loons do a nest exchange.</ref> I realize the photo is a bit blurry.

Past Suzy's Cave.</ref> This bull provided us with a long enjoyable show as he ate plants while standing in the waters of the narrowing Tobin Harbor.

slides[26] = new Slide("27", "<ref>Yellow wildflowers.</ref> Pretty though I am not sure what they are. Maybe someone can tell me. We saw all sorts of pretty flowers on this trip and it is a good thing I can enjoy them without necessarily knowing their names. 12:07.");

slides[30] = new Slide("31", "<ref>The Rock Harbor Lighthouse.</ref> This lighthouse went into operation in, I believe, 1855 but was only active for five years. 15 years later it had another active period of five years before being permanently extinguished. The lighthouse was active during two commercial mining operations on Isle Royale. Today it is a museum. 16:27.");

slides[39] = new Slide("40", "<ref>The National Park Service boat the Ranger III.</ref> This is, I have been told, the single largest piece of NPS equipment.

slides[47] = new Slide("48", "The <ref>Rock of Ages Lighthouse</ref> off in the distance as seen from the deck of the Voyageur II. Today this is a fully automated lighthouse, but decades ago it required a keeper and that no doubt was a lonely posting since the lighthouse was on a small, yet dangerous, outcrop of rocks.

slides[61] = new Slide("62", "<ref>Several miles away near the western tip of Isle Royale is Rock of Ages Lighthouse.</ref> Again I expect the beam this lighthouse casts is easily visible here at Rainbow Cove. I also suspect it is a really nice paddle to Washington Harbor from here. The SCA group may have paddled here from Windigo. While I believe they took an NPS boat from Mott Island I doubt it docked at this cove where no dock exists. 19:37.");
