Hiking Pincushion Mountain

So I heard there used to be a Ski Mountain on a Pincushion mountain that has great views so I just had to check it out. The hike was just about 5 minutes from Grand Marais and well worth it. The trails were not specifically marked but I think we hiked the Sawtooth Outlook.
It's hard to tell from this picture, but there is an amazing view of Grand Marais. 
And here's a quick zoom in...
There was only one thing I should warn you about the hike... it starts at the sign for Pincushion mountain but it takes you a mile or so along the road until you cross it down the hill a bit at this place that was a road at one time before it climbs the mountain. We thought it was weird but what do you do I guess. Don't say I didn't warn you! I suppose it would be just as easy to park there and save the time. Anyways, check it out and bring a nice camera, you won't regret it!
