Day 8
Friday, Oct. 3
Grand Portage, Minnesota

This was one of our best days ever!  This morning it wasn't raining so took a hike around the beach at Bear Head Lake. So pretty. Nice and cool!

Hit the road around 10. The drive (Hwy. 61) along the north shore of Lake Superior was so beautiful!  Pretty fall colors and waterfalls.  After parking the trailer at the RV park we took a drive to the Grand Portage State Park.  The waterfalls there were awesome. Grand Portage, named by the Indians, means "the great carrying place".  It is a 9 mile trail around the waterfalls on the Pigeon River, which is the boundary here between Canada and the United States.  The falls are estimated to be 100' to 130'.

Since we were camped at a casino, took our spare change and attempted to make us a little gas money.  We only broke even, but that was ok.

It's in the 30's here on the Canadian border!
