Timber Harvests –
A few sections of the MECCA Trail System has and will be affected by timber harvests conducted by the WI DNR and Iron County Forestry. Attached is a map depicting the DNR’s timber harvest which is nearly completed except for forwarding and trucking the timber off the property. As you can see on the map, the aspen harvest was conducted in the area of the Moose and Osprey Loops.
The Iron County Forestry pine harvest will affect the south end of the Homestead Loop. This harvest should be starting in late May or early June.
MECCA is working with WI DNR and Iron County Forestry to remediate the impacts to the ski trails. If hiking the trails, the best advice is to stay clear of the operations.
