Engineer Gladman and crew of 15
men started Wednesday TO survey the
south route of the proposed Ely
Grand Marais road Last winter a
survey was made of the north route
by Mr.. McCauley of the State High
way department. This route was
considered too difficult and did not
meet with the approval of those who
looked into the matter, the claim
being made that the south route will
benefit the larger number of people.
The Town of Fall Lake is making
this survey and is backed by the
County Commissioners of Lake Co.
The commissioners made a trip over
the proposed route last summer. It
is said the north route traverses an
almost barren, burnt-over country
while that little farther south, finer
scenery and much more feasible
route can be put in of much more
benefit to all concerned than the
other. AS the road is to be con-
structed in a large part for fire pre-
vention and to facilitate the fight
ing of forest fires, it is the opinion
that the south route, south of Snow
bank Lake is the best. The crew now
out will decide this point and it is to
be hoped that construction work will
be begun this summer A consid-
cradle stretch has already been built
in Cook County and it is the purpose
to tie into this as soon as possible.
This will furnish a mode of ingress
and egresss to country rich in tim
Der and iron possibilities. County
Commissioner st. Clair of Section
Thirty is enthusiastic over the south
route believing it to be the best, and
it is through his efforts and other
commissioners of Lake County that
the new survey is being made.
