Iron Goat Trail Hike: trail views

Much of the trail followed along the side of tall snow barriers. This part of the trail is relatively flat, gaining only 300 feet in over two miles.

Mileposts indicate the distance from St. Paul, Minnesota.

We passed by this collapsed wooden show shed. It had been built in 1910 and was left when the line was abandoned in 1929.

The wild flowers were beautiful. Some of the path was overgrown and we fought stinging nettles.
