POINTS UNKNOWN: Dog Sled | Paddle | Hike | Stay — Local services in East Cook

What a magical experience, gliding through the pristine winter woods, pulled by a team of dogs reveling in their element! Points Unknown provides exciting, educational adventures from half-day to extended lifestyle immersion events. Our adventure began as we got to know our team, all well-behaved and eager to run. We snuggled into a cozy, zip-up bag with hot water bottles at our feet, then off we went, swooshing around curves and following the varied terrain of immaculately kept trails.

Points Unknown is premium, amazing, and has become one of my favourite places. I cannot stop thinking about it. I love dogs, people, dogsledding, travelling, and the outdoors so I was in my heaven on earth. I attended The Women's Weekend Adventure and it exceeded my expectations. From the owner to the staff and of course the dogs, it was super. The owner Linda takes such excellent care of her dogs and knows everything about them. Linda is a great teacher and mentor and my mushing experience was fantastic! I felt so welcome and comfortable among everyone in the home and the accommodations, food was excellent.

We stayed at Linda's Airbnb for two nights and loved it! It is completely off grid, so don't expect to get any signal or wifi here. For us, it was super nice to spend time in Grand Marais (about 35 mins out) and get some signal, then hike and come back here at night to get away from the constant influx of communication. We were also able to take part in a small part of her daily lifestyle by helping to feed her beautiful dogs. Absolutely looking forward to returning, especially in winter when we can do some sledding! Do note: though it didn't bother us, the huskies do howl at night sometimes, so if you are staying here, keep that in mind!
