***BLUE LAKE***

what i was told from US Steel is that the access agreement with the county expired and the landing will remain closed until Itasca County gets insurance and renews the agreement with US Steel. They believe this is still being worked on and that hopefully soon it will reopen. I will keep everyone posted as i know more. I attempted to reach out to Itasca County but no response as of yet.
