On July 13 the Happy Hikers will start from the trailhead on Otter Lake Road and hike along the Superior Hiking Trail/ Border Route Trail to the northern terminus of the Superior Hiking Trail and the 270 Degree Overlook, where you will see beautiful views of the Swamp River/Pigeon River valleys and the Canadian border. We will have lunch at the overlook. Well-behaved dogs on a leash are welcome.
Difficulty level: Moderate with some elevation (may be muddy in sections)
Approximate distance: Two miles
Meet at the YMCA parking lot near the tennis courts at 9:00 am. We’ll carpool to the Otter Lake Rd. trailhead, approximately 40 miles from Grand Marais. Suggested donation for drivers: $3.
If you live east of Grand Marais and would like to meet us along Hwy. 61, meet at the intersection of the Arrowhead Trail around 9:20 a.m. Let me know if you’re going to meet us there so we know to wait for you.
What to bring: Hat, sunscreen, insect repellent, sturdy hiking shoes/boots, hiking poles, water, and a sack lunch.
If it’s raining, the hike will be cancelled. Listen to WTIP for a cancellation announcement.
