Aldo Leopold Festival

Aldo Leopold (1887 - 1948) was an American author, scientist, ecologist, forester, conservationist, and environmentalist. He is best know for his book "A Sand County Almanac" which sold more than two million copies. 

Leopold vacationed in the Les Cheneaux Islands. The Aldo Leopold Festival, held each spring, honors his contributions to the area. The festival is hosted by the Les Cheneaux Area Tourist Association and made possible, in part, by a grant from the Les Cheneaux Area Community Foundation.
