Wisconsin Governor Takes A Hike…In Bayfield

Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers made a special trip to Bayfield earlier in the week to take a look at the work being done on the Brownstone Trail and even took the time for a hike along the trail. TheDailyPress reports Landmark Conservancy recently received a grant from Wisconsin Coastal Managment to create the final restoration design for the trail. Over the past few years, part of the trail began to erode into Lake Superior due to storms in 2017, forcing re-routing and closure of parts of the trail. Landmark calls the Brownstone Trail a critical artery of the Bayfield Trails network. The design work the grant will finance will help ensure the trails survival over the next half century or more.
