Finger Point

I did some hiking on the Canadian side of the border today, in Pigeon River Provincial Park. While this is not a staffed park, they do have some very nice hiking trails. I hiked to High Falls, then out to Finger Point, which was my first time out on that point. The trail out to Finger Point is pretty cool... it follows the shoreline of Pigeon Bay for a while, then curves inland before beginning to climb the bluff near the end of the point. I'm not sure what the elevation gain is to the top of the bluff, but I'm guessing its around 300 feet. The view when you get to the top is incredible, it is literally a 360 degree panoramic view of the surrounding bays and ridges. I can't believe that I have never hiked up there before, since its so close to home! At the end of the trail there is a large wooden bench that is carved in the shape of Lake Superior.... certainly not something you expect to find way out there! I highly recommend the hike out to Finger Point, if you ever have the time. Its definitely worth it.
