Anyone ambling along the Superior Hiking Trail is able to see the world, or at least the North Shore, through Tom Peterson s eyes. Tom s insistence on finding the best river crossing, the most satisfying falls or canyon view, the most ancient tree, the coolest cedar grove and the most interesting geological feature is evident in every step of the trail, former trail association President Anne McKinsey recalled in The Superior Hiking Trail Story.
Now recognized as the father of the Superior Hiking Trail, Peterson was hired as its first trail development manager nearly 35 years ago. I had my USGS maps and a compass. No GPS back then, he said in a 2018 video recognizing the founders of the trail. You kind of figure out, by the contours, where it s going to be good.
