George Desort is exploring and filming the fifty lakes of Isle Royale for his latest independent project. The island has become a second home for Desort since joining the Isle Royale Wolf-Moose Study in 2005 as a filmmaker and photographer.
His work has appeared in Audubon, National Geographic, Backpacker, The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and PBS affiliates across the country. Fortunate Wilderness, the wolf and moose study of Isle Royale was a finalist at the 2009 International Wildlife Film Festival.

How is this project going?
Gonna need a bigger boat (Jaws).
George,
I'm excited about this - I'd love to go to IR but it's not in the cards for now. I'll travel vicariously through your movie.
Any thoughts of selling the coffee table book later? I'd also love one but don't have $250 right now.
Thanks and good luck!!
Very cool concept for a film!
From a beginning filmmaker to a seasoned one Good Luck George!
We've been there and are going back in September. Our decision to donate was easy! Best of luck.
Good Luck George!
This project looks amazing! Best of Luck!
