 The Paul Bunyan State Trail passes
through the center of present day Backus, population 240. Pine Mountain Lake is on the
west, and the former business district is to the east. The community's commercial
services, located along TH 371, can serve trail users.The view of the lake provided by
the existing public water access and the small community park on nearby Pine Mountain Lake
should attract many trail users. These two recreational facilities are only about a
quarter of a mile from the trail.
