Sawtooth Mountains (Minnesota)
The Sawtooth Mountains are a range of mountains on the North Shore of Lake Superior in the U.S. state of Minnesota, extending about 30 miles (50 km) from Carlton Peak near Tofte on the west, to Grand Marais on the east.〔Upham, pp. 3, 147.〕
==Description==
The Sawtooth Mountains rise from Lake Superior at angles between 8 and 20 degrees and drop off steeply on their north sides.
〔Ojankagas, Plate 12〕 They received their name as a result of their relatively uniform size, angles, and regularity of spacing; seen from Lake Superior to the east, "the visible crest line thus presents a remarkable profile, resembling the teeth of an immense saw."〔
From the west, rising from the Temperance River, major prominences are Carlton Peak above Temperance River State Park, Leveaux Mountain and a knob immediately across the Onion River, Moose Mountain, the Eagle Mountain at Lutsen, peaks along a ridge above Cascade River State Park, Murphy Mountain, and Sawtooth Bluff above Grand Marais.
