TRIP DETAILS + INFORMATION
We are heading to Grand Marais, Minnesota for an epic weekend of Winter wilderness adventure and relaxation with Stone Harbor Wilderness Supply! There is no better way to enjoy the pristine solitude of Northern Minnesota’s forests than on a pair of snowshoes. Let us take you off the beaten path on an interpretive hike through the powdery woods of Cook County. Walk through snow covered trees, follow fox tracks, explore frozen beaver ponds, all under the safe and knowledgeable eye of an experienced guide. Bring your friends and learn local natural history. Take the path less traveled and have a genuine North Shore experience.
We will also hike to the majestic High Falls on the Pigeon River. North of Grand Marais in Grand Portage State Park, High Falls is one of the most impressive waterfalls in Northern Minnesota, especially in the winter. The Pigeon River marks the US-Canadian border, so a hike out to High Falls also gives you some lovely views of Canada. Grand Portage feels out of the way from Grand Marais, but is worth the trip.
Finally, we will wrap up our adventure at Sisu & Loyly, a lakeside Nordic Spa experience. Cycle through soothing heating and cooling rounds in your very own private sauna and experience breathtaking views of Lake Superior and Artists Point. You are invited to enjoy the lakeside bonfire area as well as the cozy indoor lounge. Towels, bathrobes, sandals and water-bottles are provided for use during your visit. Tea, coffee and water are complimentary. The sauna lounge access extends to the restrooms, showers and changing area.
