Fall brings the deer hunters and in the winter snowmobiling is a growing activity, supporting a small industry with a network of trails leading to nearby communities, including across the [[Big Bog State Recreation Area]] to [[Waskish Township, Minnesota|Waskish Township]]. Fishing is available most of the year. In the winter cold temperatures occasionally dipping down to −40° (F or C) create ice that can support small snowplows to clear roads on the lakes for ice-fishing.
