I want to thank everyone for all your responses.

After meeting with Steve from Island Support and reviewing all your concerns and recommendations I have decided to use the camp but will not be turning on or using any water.

I will simply turn the heat on when I get here and shut it off when I leave. The camp will remain winterized from November till spring. This seems to be the best and safest method to ensure no problems occur.

The biggest factor that made up my mind is electricity...There is simply no way to safeguard for a long term power outage on the island. A backup generator will only run for so many days until fuel is exhausted.

Thanks again!

Dan
