Closures

Closures

  • The Keweenaw ORV route closed between Lac La Belle and Powder House Road

    The Keweenaw ORV route is closed between Lac La Belle and Powder House Road. Logging operations have created unsafe conditions for shared use which has resulted in a temporary closure of the trail. The closure begins two miles east of Lac La Belle Road and continues along S. Mandam LP for about 10 miles. There is no re-route option for connection to Copper Harbor. Forestry operations are expected to complete early December in time for snowmobile season. Users are asked to adhere to the closure.  Once the Forestry operations are complete the trail will be open to the public. (updated 10/3/19)
