Solana State Forest is my favorite of those in (relatively) close proximity to the Cities, but you can't beat Superior National Forest, IMO.

Really depends on when you're going. Solana's nice because of it's accessibility, but also gets a lot of traffic (comparatively). Lots of activity there once grouse opens.
Superior is big enough that you can find a place away from any vestige of human existence fairly easily. |

Superior National forest pretty much anywhere, the BWCA, or Voyaguers National Forest. I prefer the real up northwoods feel of the NE MN area. Plenty of primitive camping away from the masses. Go to the MN DNR website to look at the state and nation parks and forests, and campgrounds.

Pick up a plat book of the county your thinking about, tax forfeited land is open to dispersed camping also.

Is any sort of firearm hunting allowed up in Superior? I understand regs need to be followed, I'm curious if its possible to stay for maybe a couple weeks at a time and survive off the land. This is very relevant to my interests.

I deer hunt in the SNF (sadly, no luck last couple of years, probably because of the wolves). So yes, you can hunt there.

I'd suggest calling the SNF ranger station in Tofte. They'll answer all your questions. If you have specific game questions, like deer populations or such, ask to talk to the biologist.
Good people there, and they live and work in the area. They're more like normal folks than federal employees. |
