According to byways.org, "The Gunflint Trail passes through the northeastern corner of Minnesota near the Canadian border. The pastoral landscape of the Superior National Forest is a quiet nature destination where animals outnumber people. Travel the Gunflint Trail and experience views of beautiful Lake Superior in the byway's starting point, Grand Marais, and from the 1,000-foot elevation of the Sawtooth Mountain ridgeline. The forest changes from mixed deciduous to maple, to mixed conifer, to conifer, and to boreal forest--all home to a fascinating variety of birds and mammals."
