Take a guided tour of the S.S. Meteor and see the only remaining whaleback ship in existence! Just off Highway 53 in Superior, WI, this "laker", a ship used on the Great Lakes, but not on the high seas, has a fascinating history and a unique structure.
Honor those who served our country in World War II at the Richard I. Bong World War II Heritage Center. It's right on Highway 53 in Superior.
The Fairlawn Mansion is nearby, also right on 53, and is well worth the stop. The mansion has the usual tour guides, and is said to have an unusual one, also. This young lady will help visitors find an exhibit, and then simply vanish. This ghostly guide reportedly has friends who are seen near the old swimming pool in the basement. Good natured, helpful ghosts are hard to find today, but you may meet them at Fairlawn Mansion in Superior, WI.
Look to the Lake. You may see seagoing vessels as well as "lakers" and various fishing and pleasure boats. Take a drive over the high bridge to Duluth, Minnesota and explore the downtown district.
From Rainbow's End Resort, take US 53 north about 110 miles. The trip is a lot more scenic than it sounds! Watch for Lake Superior as you crest the last long hill before the international port city of Superior, WI.
Have fun on your outing from Base Camp Chetek at Rainbow's End Resort!
