Koochiching County High Point Trip Report

We drove south of Northome to a Seventh Day Adventist church and parked. I walked the road showing on
the map (Northome South Quad) going southeast. ATV trails abound in the area. It was easy to find the
PT1525 southeast of the church, the east point on the double-topped height of land being obvious.
From there, ATV trails took me around the north side of a swamp, then southeast and around the south side
of another swamp, then over PT 1515 and finally to PT 1525 to the east of that. Came back the same way
except used an ATV trail that took me south of the swamp I'd gone north of before and connected on to the
road south of the church and south of the first PT 1525.
Views of awful looking swamps.
Trip statistics: round trip 1 hour and 25 minutes, 3 miles, 200 feet elevation gain.
