Northwoods Land Trust is hosting a Paddle on the Gile Flowage on Sunday, July 13 from 2:00 – 4:30 pm. The event will start at the boat landing at Gile Park.
This 3,400-acre flowage is located in Iron County and was created by a dam on the West Branch of the Montreal River. During the paddle, we will look at plants and animals we encounter, discuss federal licensing of the Gile Dam, and learn about some of the geological features of the area.
Participants should expect to paddle 3+ miles and need to provide their own watercraft, paddles, PFD, snack and water
