The Heck of the North is born from the premise that you the rider are ultimately responsible for getting to the finish. Limited support. No sag wagons. No signs guiding you home. Just your ability to spin miles of forested gravel roads. Just your ability to navigate by cue card. Just your strength to see it through to the end. And the opportunity to ride with some pretty amazing people!

Voyageur Brewing Company | Grand Marais MN
We offer brewery tours year round on Saturdays and during the summer months we have tours on Saturdays and Sundays. A guide will explain the brewing process to you and show you the ingredients and equipment needed to make craft beer. After the tour guests 21 and over will be offered samples of our beer and can ask any questions they might still have.
We ask guests to reserve a spot online as there is a 20 person maximum per group. Summer tour times are 11:30am and 1pm on Saturdays and 1pm on Sundays. Now through May we have one tour on Saturdays.
No payment is necessary at the time of booking the reservation but we we do ask you to bring a $5 donation that we can give to one of our Cook County non-profits.
Tour Details:
Don’t forget to register all members of your party, including your kids.
Please cancel your reservation if you are unable to attend so some other lucky fan will get to enjoy the tour.

Drury Lane Books | Grand Marais MN
A subtle centrifugal force drives this collection. By turns witty, solemn or capricious, the book moves outward from private, often lyrical poems about childhood and memory on into the realm of the “real world’s” self-serving myths, fears, and institutionalized inequities, and from there into work that celebrates the joys of love and the beauty and mystery of the natural world, and then still further outward into poems that consider the very nature of reality, what it means to be human, and where to find glimpses of the sacred in the midst of the profane and the disenchanted. Come meet Richard and discuss his poetry with him and others.
