A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own the only private frontage on a wilderness lake otherwise completely surrounded by Nature Conservancy old growth forest, and at the edge of the 73,000-acre Michigamme Highlands, with all its untouched wilderness--all open to hunting, fishing, canoeing, and whatever quiet sport you desire. For safety purposes, there are a few designated trails for ATVâ??s and snowmobiling ---located where the impact on wildlife and sportsmen is minimal. To reach this rare parcel, your exclusive gated accessâ??shared only with land management personnelâ??winds through 5 miles of beautiful Precambrian upland forests and around hidden lakes, bogs, and streams, before reaching the Conservancyâ??s self-proclaimed â??jewelâ? of the Michigamme Highlands, the high-altitude spring-fed waters of Loon Lake. Although your private access is a wildlife adventure in itself, Loon Lake is approximately 1-1/4 miles in length which makes this property accessible by air, should that desire, and rare privilege be yours. Although this property is situated in the worldâ??s richest Birdâ??s Eye Maple region, its inaccessibility for lumbermen seeking this valuable wood encouraged them to harvest that which was so much easier to reach and haul to the millsâ?¦thereby preserving these trees to grow to massive proportions, as they have in other remote Huron Mountain locations. This is certainly a rare opportunity which you must see and evaluate for yourself.
