Trail Name: Superior Hiking Trail I have hiked there: A few times I last hiked there in: Sept, 102 Trails that I hiked: I have hiked the Cascade River and
into Bear lake at Tettegouche. Favorite trails: Since those are the only two I have hiked
in that area I would say those two are my favorite, But they were
really awesome. Best time to go: When the weather is mild, not scorching
in the day, but not freezing at night Trail marking: Very good Trail maintenance: Very good Rating: 4.5 stars What I liked: The Cascade River was a beautiful hike and
the campsites were really nice.I would recommend the Cascade
River trail. I would have to say that the Bear Lake trail at
Tettegouche is my favorite. The scenery from this trail was
incredible,with over 200 ft cliffs and beautiful outlooks on Bean
and Bear Lakes and lots of wildlife I cant even count how many
deer we saw.Though The terrain was a little more difficult, but
very fun and challenging, I would highly recommend the Bean and
Bear lake trails at Tettegouche, it was a hell of a time. What I disliked: Nothing really. Additional comments: Visit palisade Head. Submitted by: AWS from: Blaine ,MN Date submitted: April 14, 2004
