Moss Lake Trail, Superior National Forest

Standing at the corner of Caribou Rock Trail and Moss Lake Trail we head down Moss Lake Trail.  I storm is coming and the wind is making the trees creek pretty loudly.

Between looking out for falling trees and hoping that the rain would hold off until we returned, which it just barely did, we managed to see some pretty parts of nature.

Probably halfway on the trail you hit another crossroads with a portage road.  The trail heads up and right into the most ferns I have ever seen.

The trail was overgrown and between the mosquitoes, ticks, and ferns we finally gave up and turned around.  We kept thinking it was just a little further to what, the lake maybe.  I do not know what is at the end of the trail.  I do know it started to pour the second we returned to the cabin so turning back was the right call.

If you only have time to take either Caribou Rock Trail or Moss Lake Trail I suggest Caribou Rock Trail.  If you make it to the end of Moss Lake Trail let me know what you find.
