     Lakes? Sure, Trip Lake is close at hand; a wonderful close by hotel is Eagle Ridge Resort at Lutsen Mountains. The annual rain here at Extortion Lake is about average; the wettest month of the year is frequently August, that's the one that rains the most, and February meanwhile is the driest month. This lake is so wonderful. If you come at the right time of year, Poplar River offers some magnificent whitewater. What would winter be without some skiing at Lutsen,  
   and Gunflint Pines is a good local campground.
