Camping 2010 #2

This weekend we had the opportunity to go camping up north near Biwabik with Joni and David. The campground was beautiful with tall pine trees and quite little lake.



A tour of the City of Biwabic wouldn't be complete without a pic in front of the moose!






Joni's rock collection



What a meal! The food always taste better outdoors.


Kara, Joni & David headed back home and I stayed behind because I have to work in Hibbing tomorrow. May as well do a little exploring.





Now I'm off to find a lookout tower. I found the GPS coordinates to the Birch Knob Lookout Tower. After driving around on forest service roads for about an hour I found were the tower USED to be!




But it still had a nice view.

Now it's time for one last hike to the top of Giants Ridge Ski Slope. That was a big climb. No wonder they use chair lifts in the winter!

OK. This is just to tempting!

It's not that high.

And the View is awesome!



Yes, I am blogging from the top of Giants Ridge. The wind is calm, the air is cool and I can't hear a sound except for birds chirping. What Great Day!!!!
