Grand Marais Water Tower


The newly painted Grand Marais water tower was unveiled a few days ago. Many thanks to both Grand Marais and the Gunflint Trail Scenic Byway committee for boldly featuring the byway logo. The sign has very good lighting on it at night at night. The primary Gunflint Trail entrance was moved north of town several years ago and this water tower is shortly after the the spot where the 'new' Gunflint Trail meets the 'old' Gunflint Trail so there will be no doubt what road you are on when visiting this wonderful area.

It is snowing out again today mid-trail. It will not accumulate much and the snow has melted from our little storm last week but I am ready for a week or two of warmer weather before winter really moves in to stay.

I like the logo on the tower and look forward to seeing it in person next June. I've come to the Gunflint trail since a child, and that was over 50 years ago! And my husband, another "senior" used to guide on the BWCA as a HS student. It is a favorite area to return to! Marlene & Fred
