Gunflint Trail is open

As we were driving to Loon Lake Lodge for ribs last night, and they do have the best ribs around, we learned that the voluntary evacauation of the the Gunflint Trail north of us was over. With the rain that we have had the past few days, the fires are under control. They are anticipated to be fully contained by October 1st.

Two more entry points to the BWCA were re-opened, 51-Missing Link and 52-Brandt Lake. The following are still closed but the forest service is evaluating daily when they can be re-opened.
