Neat things to check out in Ely,
the National Wolf Museum
National Bear Museum
and the mine. If you get to the mine early enough you can go down and see the lab where they attempt to catch neutrinos. We didn’t see that. Oh and you get to ride down into the mine the same way the miners did. Enjoy!!
A thousand years or so ago, I went on a 10 day YMCA sponsored canoe/portage trip out of Bear Lake North of Grand Marais. Yes, great country.
