For those of you planning on a trip to Madeline Island be advised the ferry has shut down service until spring.
This year’s decision to shut down ferry service came more than a month earlier than it has in the recent past, Madeline Island Ferry Line officials said.
That means until the ice road is ready the windsled must be used. (Windsled Schedule)
 ”I love it because I deal with about 1,000 people a day in the summer,” said Ted Pallas, a year-round island resident who works for the town’s solid waste and recycling center. “I love how in the winter, you can shoot a rifle down Main Street and not hit anybody.”
Not that he’d actually do that, Pallas quickly added, though he does like knowing that he could, should the mood strike.
I’d wait until Spring to visit if I were you.
