LOON LAKE LODGE

At Loon Lake Lodge you are surrounded by the unspoiled wilderness of the Minnesota north woods. The Gunflint Trail area, where we are located, has changed little over the years. It is much the same as it was over a hundred years ago. The calls of loons, the hoot of owls, the eerie howl of a wolf on a moonlit night and the breeze whispering through the trees will take you back to a much simpler and less hurried time.

Little Iron & Tucker Lakes


Snowshoeing Saturday


Terry and I got a chance to get over to Little Iron & Tucker Lakes on Saturday. It was a nice temperature but it was snowing like crazy. We walked the shoreline of Little Iron and there were tons of animal tracks. Mostly deer tracks but there were also some signs of wolves. This year we have seen more wolves than ever before. In years past you would see signs of wolf activities but almost never accually see the wolf but that has changed. On this day we just saw the tracks of one or two wolves. Over on Tucker we saw few tracks but ran into some slush. Never fun because it builds up on your snowshoes and soon they wiegh a ton. It was a great day but couldn't take any pictures because of the heavy snow.


The picture I used today is one taken from the house. It is cold today -25, so there won't be any walking today maybe just a good book by the fireplace.
