This byway crosses the Superior National Forest of northeastern Minnesota, running through boreal woods of spruce, pine, and birch dotted with lakes and beaver ponds. The forest borders the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, and moose, wolves, and loons all range through the country the road passes. Fall color and quiet northern scenery are the draw rather than dramatic relief.
