Durfee Creek, Superior Hiking Trail

Heading NOBO on the SHT out of the Woods Creek campsite we came up out of the forest into some previously logged hillsides that have a prairie like appearance and some of the most amazing views of Lake Superior, Pincushion Mtn and Five Mile Rock. Past the open sloped field you head back into the trees and come upon Durfee Creek, labeled only by a group campsite sign. The site is slightly off the creek so it’s a quick walk past the site to reach the creek for water. The tent pads are spread out and the fire pit is normal sized so if the site is full seating will be at a premium. Overall the site is serviceable but lacks easy water access and views.
