The Sawtooth Mountains, There are a multitude of rivers and streams running down through the Sawtooths to Lake Superior, with uncounted cascades and waterfalls along their way. Trails lead through the dense forests on both public and private land.
Wildlife thrives in this mostly undeveloped area, home to numerous state parks as well as Grand Portage National Monument, Superior National Forest, and the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
