Phase 1 of the St. Louis River trail extends from Carlton to the Scanlon park and ride (southeast of Cloquet). Between County Road 3 and the Scanlon park and ride, five rocks have been set along the trail to indicate points of interest and to serve as reminders of the trail’s railroad-related history.

From south to north, the rocks are as follows:

1. Beaver tracks

2. Good water

3. Railroad

4. Bad water

5. Axe and log
