Neither here nor there, but the story I've always heard growing up in Northern MN was regarding occasional ice crossings in years where Superior froze. I've never heard stories about swimming out to the island.
Completely unrelated, my favorite Isle Royale fact is that there is a lake on the island. That lake contains an island. That island is the biggest island on a lake on an island on a lake in the world.
