A fun but sometimes challenging backpacking trip to the highest point in Minnesota.
Explorer Waterfall Trip- 6/2-3/2017
A 2 day trip to 7 different waterfalls from Duluth to Grand Portage, MN. Hikes ranged from 1/2 mile to 7 miles for some beautiful waterfall scenery. We didn’t get to the waterfall at George H. Crosby because of high water so another trip will be coming.
