Please join us for a ceremony and ribbon-cutting event for the long-awaited completion of Michigan Department of Natural Resources’ Trail No. 3 – Dollar Bay to Lake Linden – located in Houghton County.
This portion of Trail No. 3 was severely damaged by a historic 1,000-year storm and flood on Father’s Day in June 2018. Construction began in 2021 to rebuild this important economic connection for these two communities, as well as Houghton County and the wider Keweenaw Peninsula. The reconstruction work, totaling nearly $11 million, was funded by several sources, including the American Recovery Plan Act, Michigan Economic Development Corporation grants from the state’s general fund and federal funding from the Land and Water Conservation Fund.
The event will be held along the trail near First Street in Dollar Bay at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 30. Directional signs will be posted (see attached map - GPS Coordinates: 47.125235, -88.497845).
We look forward to seeing you there!
