Hello! I am going on a trip next week with my parents. I am coming from the Twin Cities while they are coming from NW Minnesota. Does anyone know if there is longterm parking available in the Silver Bay area, if we were to meet up there and ride the rest of the way together? Hoping to avoid having both cars drive all the way. Thanks!

You could try the parking lot at the trail head for the Superior Hiking Trail in Silver Bay. It would not seem unusual for a car to be left there for a week.

"Said one of these men, long past seventy years of age: 'I could carry, paddle, walk and sing with any man I ever saw. I have been twenty-four years a canoe man, and forty-one years in service; no portage was ever too long for me. Fifty songs could I sing. I have saved the lives of ten voyageurs. Have had twelve wives and six running dogs. I spent all my money in pleasure. Were I young again, I should spend my life the same way over. There is no life so happy as a voyageur's life!'"
