Jim,

Isle Royale should be rendering correctly at all zoom levels. I added the
ways that make up the island to the Lake Superior multipolygon relation as
"inner" members *and* removed the "natural=coastline" tag from those same
ways. According to the wiki [1], this is the current method for mapping
islands that are within inland bodies of water (as opposed to islands in
the Ocean).

There are lots of other islands to fix, including other small islands next
to Isle Royale that I believe are part of the National Park.

I do have a related question that I will post to the broader OSM-Talk list
as it isn't US specific.

Also, there are a lot of topological issues within Isle Royale to fix (some
of the lakes *on the island* overlap wetlands).  These don't seem to impact
the rendering - other than the overlap looking bad.

Mike
