We are lucky to have such a beautiful wilderness area that is remote, yet easily accessible. While we are 45 miles from the closest town, the highways (of which the last 20 miles are gravel) and roads take us fairly quickly into the Big Woods.

The forest is comprised of spruce, fir, jackpine, tamarack, aspen, birch, willow, ash, oak, and a variety of berried shrubs, perennial wildflowers, mosses, ferns, and lichens. The beautiful Bird River provides excellent wildlife habitat and hunting opportunities. Depending on the temperatures, we can also take advantage of canoeing the river to more remote hunting areas. Area creeks and tributaries also provides incredible habitat to all sorts of wildlife.
