When in Superior…

Two things I learned this weekend. If you find yourself in, or near Superior:
DO… Visit Amnicon Falls State Park, where the Amnicon River thunders through serpentine chasms of glacial basalt, like a… like an ancient Thunder Serpent. The spray-veiled river views are wonderful; the staff conscientious; and as far as car camping goes, the sites are generously spaced and pleasantly primitive.
DO NOT… If you are dining anywhere in Superior (if you *must* eat there,) I repeat, do not order the ungodly union of beef patty and brat patty called The Badger Burger. After the fight it put up inside me, I think there must have been some badger meat in there as well.

So, now I regret not going to Amnicon when I was up in that area a few weeks ago.
But I can tell you that the only place worth eating at in Superior is the Anchor Bar. Not only a classic “longshoreman” bar with the grouchy waitresses and cheap beer, but also makers of some delicious burgers and fries.

Thanks dharma bum! That would bring the total of reasons to go to Superior, up to 2;)
