8/20/06 – While the lakes in the BWCA are world-renowned for canoeing, there are several day hikes in our region that are definitely worth checking out while you’re here. Today crew members Carl Geving and Matt Hartmann hiked to the top of Carlton peak. Other great hikes in our area include Britton Peak and Eagle Mountain. Eagle Mountain is actually the highest point in Minnesota reaching its peak at 2,301 feet.
