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.

March Madness

9:40 AM



March Madness Gunflint Trail style starts this week.  First will be Mush for a Cure.  What is Mush For a Cure? Mush For a Cure is a non-competitive sled dog FUNdraiser with proceeds donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.  Over the last few years they have raised tens of thousands of dollars for breast cancer research.  So check them out if you are in the area or go to their web site and you can donate to a great cause.

Starting Sunday the John Beargrease Sled Dog race gets started.  The race comes from Duluth to Gunflint Lake and back again covering nearly 400 miles in just a couple of days.  The trail comes up our driveway so we have a very good view of the race but the problem is they generally come through during the middle of the night.  Terry and I volunteer to provide safety for the teams crossing the Gunflint Trail.  Just to make sure there is no conflict between traffic and the teams. 

So lots of things going on!
