Marais Has Elevation of
2,230 Feet.

The highest point in Minnesota is
situated in the Superior National Forest

ton of 2,23O feet above sea level.
1t can be reached by driving up the
Gunflint trail to the Gunflint CCC
camp and then west about two and a
half miles to the Lima Mountain look
out of the forest service. The remain
ing six and a half miles, if this route
is taken, are through the woods and
over several lakes The point is 10

A similar highest" point in Michi-
gan, Government Peak in the Ottawa
National Forest, attracts visitors
throughout tn enation who follow the
hobby of collecting rocks from the
highest point of land in every state
they can travel to. 1t is quite
common for persons to call at the

Forest" stated Glare Hendee, forest
supervisor "a total of 100000 trees
will be planted and all available CCC

The tree species being planted include
red pine, jack pine, and white spruce.
These trees are from 6 to 8 inches in
height and are from to 4 years old,
depending upon the species planted.

which have been logged or burned over
desirable forest trees. One of these
areas is that burned over by the large
Markham-Palo fire of 1886. ALI sum-

and plows have been driven back and
forth making burrows in which the
young trees are planted These fur
