Likewise, there's no shortage of opportunities to hike, bicycle, snowmobile or cross-country ski your way across our corner of the northwoods. Not only is it the halfway point on the new Paul Bunyan Trail, it is also the gateway to the Chippewa National Forest and home to the Deep Portage Nature Preserve.And while you're out and about, be sure to pay a visit to the shore of captivating Birch Lake where you'll find Paul Bunyan's sweetheart, Lucette, and their son Paul Jr. serenely surveying the local scene in anticipation of the second Wednesday of July, when they will just plain have a good time during our "Sweetheart Days" festivities.Indeed, the fame of the statuesque Miss Kensack seems to have spread far and wide.
