Gitchi-Gami State Trail from Cutface to Grand Marais nearly complete, but not yet open

For about a year now, curious passersby have been watching the progress of the newest section of the Gitchi Gami State Trail, wondering when the trail from the Cutface Creek Wayside to the outskirts of Grand Marais will be open.

WTIP’s Rhonda Silence checked in with some of the folks involved with completing the trail, Oliver Liu of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Trails division and Michelle Pierson of the Gitchi Gami State Trail Association about the current almost completed project in Cook County.

WTIP also learned more about what’s ahead for the Gitchi Gami Trail.
