Jump to: navigation, search

The Gunflint Trail is a 57-mile paved roadway that begins in Grand Marais, Minnesota and ends at Seagull Lake in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness (BWCA), near the US border with Ontario, Canada. Originally a foot path for travellers from inland lakes to Lake Superior, the trail was eventually widened into a road. It now serves as a route to lodges, outfitters, hiking trails, homes for a small number of people numbering in the hundreds, and the lakes and rivers of the BWCA. Its numerical designation is Cook County Highway 12.

Significant events in 2006 include the Cavity_Lake_Fire and the Famine_Lake_Fire.
