hey everyone so we are here at oberg mountain trailhead we are heading on
a beautiful fall hike look at that you guys
it is lit up up here it is september 26th
as we are doing this hike and this is a staple hike for us so
every single fall we come up here to the north shore and this
hike always makes a list it's short and it's sweet and it is stunning
so um the hike itself from the trailhead here right off of onion river road is
about 2.5 miles round trip the first half mile you're climbing
about 230 feet so a little bit of a steep incline at the beginning but then
once you get up to the top of oberg mountain it is
stunning you got views of like superior superior national forest
and then oberg lake so definitely a really fun hike
the sun is just coming up and yeah it's gonna be a good good day here on the
trail i'm ready to do some hiking and the colors
so follow along here's a little map of where we're hiking
we're parked right here at the oberg parking lot and then you just make the
hike over to the loop that goes all the way around
oberg mountain there's your warning
you guys this is insanity look at these trails looks like straight
leaves they're so pretty and there's still a
lot of leaves left on the trees it's gorgeous it's like
you're walking in like a fall wonderland not a winter wonderland
a fall wonderland
the trail is really a really nice trail it's wide
there are roots and rocks that you just have to kind of be watchful for
but otherwise overall it's a really good conditioned trail it's a little wet
this morning because it did rain last night but
it's not like muddy and there's not puddles or anything it's so i officially
pulled out the fall hiking booth little extra warm and a little extra waterproof
coverage so these are just kind of the rocky
trail conditions i was talking about but very easy and manageable just
be prepared
first viewpoint wow that's crazy there's superior national forest there's
still like some fog so beautiful
all right we're getting into more
viewpoints we are at the top of oberg
wow
so check it out there's a bunch of fog all the way over like superior
all over there can't even see the water right now we're above the fog
wow so pretty
so so like once you get to this rocky point
at the facing lake superior you just make the
loop and go all the way around the trails are easy to navigate up here
so pretty the fog is rolling in off of that lake superior that was so weird
when you're hiking like this you gotta get some water in so stay hydrated when
you're on the trails oh boy you guys look at that i don't
even know what's going on that fog has moved in
so we're like up above the fog hey i really hope oberg is open
all right here it is the box coming in pretty cool with the fog wow
it really is so pretty with all that fog
it covered the auburn lake so okay since it was covered with fog that
literally rolled in like plus we got here
i'm going to put some photos of what it typically looks like here at oberg from
last year and the years prior because it is so pretty
and that's kind of the last viewpoint on this trail so but it's really a pretty
shot so here's some photos of when we have seen it in the past
all right you guys are walking back do you see
in the video here the fog rolling into the trees
oh my gosh we made perfect timing hanging slug literally dangling in front
of the trail and we almost walked right into him very
random occurrence here on oberg trail foggy
foggy all right you guys so we are just getting back to
the parking lot here and so we started the hike at 7:40
and it is officially 9:15. so like what is an hour and a half about
um so not too bad so just always remember to stop and enjoy it when
you're hiking wow all right you guys that is a wrap
here at oberg trail i hope you enjoyed this vlog and of course you can't
predict mother nature so that's the fog's rolling you have the fog's rolling
in and that's just how it goes when you're up here it's like the lake effect
snow type thing right yeah it just comes off the lake
and you just never know it's definitely definitely a hike to do
in the fall time very very popular it's short and sweet just how we like it
sometimes right literally right yeah go early for sure
the parking lot is full already and it's like
9:20. so it's crazy people are parking out on the road a really quick fit stop
because we haven't been to this waterfall for a
long long time and it's such an easy hike to get to
and it's like one of the most beautiful waterfalls on the north shore so
we're at caribou falls we're gonna head down there see the waterfall and head
back it's a mile round trip super easy hike so definitely another
shop on the north shore you don't want to miss out on got this waterfall
so pretty i love this waterfall it's definitely one of my favorites
