Hiking in Tettegouche State Park, Minnesota, early Oct. '22

This is part 2 of my fall trip to northern Minnesota. For part 1 see this post: https://soulcenteredphotography.blogspot.com/2022/10/oberg-mountain-and-marshall-mountain.html

I was fortunate to stay at a friend's cabin close to Tettegouche State park. The day started out with soft blues and pinks and a calm lake with beautiful reflections. And it ended with a gorgeous sunset and amazing clouds reflecting in the calm water.

I decided to go for a hike in the lesser known parts of the park. In the 6-7 hours (probably 12-15 miles) I only met 8 people! The day before I was at the popular Oberg Mountain loop near Lutsen and the amount of people there was almost overwhelming.

This turned out to be one of the most enjoyable hikes I have done in a long time (except for getting a blister on my foot)! I stopped at several overlooks with amazing views and just walking on the trails in a golden forest made me feel like being in an enchanted world! And Shanti of course had a great time and would have walked a few more miles! It was enough for me, though!

We came by Tettegouche Lake, had a picnic at Nipisiquit lake and explored the Tettegouche Camp at Mic Mac Lake. The Camp consists of 4 rustic cabins that can be rented but you have to hike in (a 1.7 mile distance) and bring your own food and bedding. It certainly is a very peaceful place to spend a few days.
