Our favorite "up north" town - we've been coming up to Boulder Junction for almost 35+ years. From website: Boulder Junction is not your typical Northwoods getaway. Hundreds of miles of pristine snowmobile trails challenge you to take your ride further. Dozens of groomed forest trails invite you to ski or snowshoe among towering pines. Mouth-watering restaurants tempt you with everything from a dish of pan-fried walleye to a hand-muddled old fashioned. https://boulderjct.org/
