The Gunflint Trail traverses an ancient sequence of rocks that tell an incredible and awesome story of how North America was assembled. You will start your Saturday exploration at the "end of the trail" where 2.5 billion year old granites that formed deep in the earth are now exposed. You will then progress into a 1.8 billion year old iron formation that was deposited in an anient seabed and later ripped asunder by meteor impact generated tsunamis and earthquakes. Finally, you will explore intrusions of magma generated 1.1 billion years ago when North America was attempting to split apart. Along the route, you will also observe the effects that mile-thick glaciers had on reshaping the landscape as they repeatedly crept out of Canada over the past two million years. On Sunday morning, you will take a pontoon boat to explore various geological and historical features on Gunflint Lake
