I used to work in the gift shop. It was always cool to me that the rangers lived on the island

Oh cool. I worked there like from 1998-2000. Only a couple rangers chose to live on the island. It’s a tough life. The last boat back is at 9 or 10. You essentially stay on that island all the time. I couldn’t do it.

Yes it looked intense. Even working there at the shop, it was only the weekends since I was in HS. Once you were on the island, you were there all day. It was fun times.
