With the generous help of Arrowhead Electric, the folks on Birch Lake will be lighting up their “1000 points of Light” Christmas Tree on the Gunflint Trail once again this year. It will be lit from Thanksgiving Day throughout the season and into the New Year. They hope many people will take the opportunity to enjoy this magical wilderness Christmas tree.

The second Hamilton Habitat house was put in place on November 20, just off of County Road 7, across the Gunflint Trail from the Cook County Law Enforcement Center. Classified as a “Tiny” home, the new house was purchased by a local restaurant cook who couldn’t afford to buy a home on the open market. Sarah and Anna Hamilton (kneeling on the right) are building affordable houses in Grand Marais with the help of the EDA and many friends. Staff photo/Brian Larsen
These two paddle boarders were headed out to open water, beyond the protection of the harbor, when last seen. They either turned around at some point, came back to shore, or they are now in Michigan. Staff photo/Brian Larsen
