What is the best way to find stranded pages?

I have a client that has a site that has had a number of people in charge of it. All of these people have very different opinions about what should be on the site itself.
When I look at their website on the server I see pages that do not have any obvious navigation to them.
What is the best way to find out the internal linking structure of a site and see if these pages truly are stranded?

There are meny crawl tools out there, but Xenu is the one I would recomend for this. It will crawl your site, and then at the end ask for your ftp details so it can specificaly check for ophaned pages. That should make the report you need.
