Small, quiet reservoir along the Mesabi Trail offering mirror-like reflections, shoreline reed and lily-pad textures, and woodland frames—especially strong in calm mornings, colorful autumn, and frozen winter. Easy trail access and roadside parking off Mesabi Trail; no entry fee. Best light at sunrise or late-afternoon golden hour; weekdays and early mornings are least crowded. Expect mosquitoes in summer; winter offers stark monochrome scenes and frozen textures.
