Default New GIA Trail in Northern MN

Here is a link to the thread that talks all about the new Grant in Aid trail, sponsered by the Northern MN Jeepers. Trail is in the process of being built. About 8.5 miles of natural (nasty) rock terrain. About a 1/4 mile is cut already and its being cut by the voluteers of the Northern MN Jeepers. Take a peek- should be ready for use by the end of 2010 i hope

Trail cutting is going great. We have about 2 miles of raw trail on the ground. Turning out a heck of lot cooler than we expect. Today on the trail, its pretty wet and we are taking a break from cutting. I don't think it will be ready this year for the public but it should be in 2011.

Trail is pretty much cut all the way out right now. Projected opening date is set for July 2011!

Is there a update on this, is it still closed to public? I just moved to Cloquet from California and looking for places to wheel and people to wheel with.

Get on mn-jeep.com for all trail updates. The trail had been open since June. Check out the MN BS thread on here also.

I'm on the trail advisory crew for the trail. My job is monthly trail inspections; whether I'm wheeling or walking.

Don't hesitate to pm if you need more localized info. The MMT is about 60 miles from Cloquet.
