Trail Overview
This trail is accessed directly from Highway 1 and begins as a wide, well-maintained gravel road. Due to frequent use by residents, an outdoor school, and recreational traffic, the surface is heavily corrugated in places. Several side trails branch off from the main route, including snowmobile trails and access routes to nearby properties. A designated canoe portage provides access to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, with a main parking area and overflow parking available nearby. As the trail continues, it reaches a split where the conditions change notably. The road narrows and begins to climb and descend through rocky terrain, with large muddy potholes scattered along the route. Before the second split, a cleared area appears suitable for dispersed camping, but no amenities are provided. Beyond this point, the trail continues down to connect with the Prospectors Trail. It's a scenic drive through dense forest, but those traveling here should come prepared, as there are no formal campsites, trash disposal, or water facilities. Cell service is likely to be limited, and begins as a wide, well-maintained gravel road.
