Pagami Creek Fire jumps the line

I will admit, I'm fascinated with these daily satellite shots. When it's clear you can see everything and I feel like a spy. You can see the maples still red on the ridges near Lake Superior and you can clearly see smoke rising from the Pagami Creek Fire. The high winds have caused the fire to jump the fire lines in certain areas. They are fighting it hard. You can clearly see the burn area on the shot. That is alot of landscape that burned. If you know your lakes you can see the old Hamm Lake fire burn on the shot just above Gunflint Lake also. It's brown in color. That was over three years ago I believe.

Fall Color ride Lutsen Mountain Minnesota

Everybody and their dog (in some cases) were at Lutsen Mountains for fall color and a Gondola ride up Moose Mountain. A ride to the top and lunch at the Mountain top Chalet that was built just a few years ago to replace the older restaurant. It's quite a thrill to take the ride and the view all the way to Upper Michigan. We ate down below at Papa Charlie's restaurant at the bottom as it was less crowded. They have excellent burgers and sweet potato fries. And there is a deck facing Moose Mountain. I would guess when we left that the line for the Gondola was at least a 100 people deep if not more? It was quite the scene and my thoughts were there are more quiet places to see fall color. Perhaps we will be back for spring break and skiing in March!

White Sky Rock/Caribou Lake Minnesota

The trail up to the overlook at White Sky Rock. It was a golden climb with the leaves filtering the sun. Simply wonderful and great exercise on a rather steep grade but only about a 1/3 of a mile.

Cascade River Minnesota Salmon Run

The Pink Salmon were running strong upon our arrival at the river this past weekend. We were lucky to time our visit to see this at peak. Also the leaves were peak for Maples on the ridges.
The weather was glorious cool and sunny. Perfect weather for hiking the trails. More to come so
Stay tuned......
