    Lots of it. Think feet, not inches. It does get pretty cold up there too in winter. Its not unusual to have temperatures below zero for days/weeks at a time.

    If you REALLY want the experience, google "Boundary Waters." Possibly one of the greatest places in the world (serious).

    Yeah, all of this looks terrible. I'll be so sad when I move here from flat and boring as can be Kansas. Finally, I'll be able to put my 4-wheel drive to the test. I can't wait.

    That looks like a terrible place to vacation. No idea why they would spend summers up there.
