I spent a weekend backpacking here and had a wonderful time. The only issue I came across was that the park's website stated that the weather station campground had potable water, but when I actually arrived at the campground, this wasn't the case. The only potable water on the island was back by the ferry dock/other campground, over a mile from the weather station. This did not ruin my trip by any means, it just meant I had to factor in an unexpected hike back to the ferry to refill on water. Had I known about this before the trip I would have made sure to either bring a bigger water bottle, or my iodine tablets and portable water filter. I am going back this summer and still plan to stay at the weather station, because it is remote and secluded so it feels very peaceful. It is also close to the shipwreck and the old growth cedar grove, which are my two favorite spots on the island.
