Today's the start of my thru-hike of the Superior Hiking Trail. Yesterday was my birthday and after traveling by bus from Duluth, and shuttle from my friend Max to the trailhead campsite last night, it feels good to be on the trail. A quick mile or so out and back to the 270 Degree Overlook at the border waters and Canada and the official Northern Terminus of the SHT kicks off the adventure.
At times the trail was overgrown and the cool temperatures covered the brush in dew.
Lots of signs of moose and I heard what I think was the sounds of movement of a moose pushing
through the trees ahead of me. Today included Rosebush Ridge, the highest elevation on the trail, but don't let the number fool you. There's a lot of ups and downs.
Camping tonight at North Calson Pond
