2018 Storm Update

Update on 2018 storm Monday June 18, 2018 9:30am

This information from Doug Hayes:
The only way in for folks who have cabins on the north side of the lake is from the West (Barnes) end. There is a 500 foot long section where there is 12 inches of water over Pigeon Lake Road and 4wd clearance is necessary to travel across that section. If you do not have 4wd with clearance, you will not get to your property. That is the only way in at the moment other than if you have a boat, if your cabin is on that side.

When driving on N, there are a lot of washouts and it is basically a one lane road, coming out of Drummond. The closer to the lake you get, the worse it gets.

Bayfieldcounty.org has updates on road closures

Anyone with  dock in the water will find it underwater. Many docks have left there spots and are floating around the lake.

Folks on the southside have water running out of the forest, across their properties, down the embankments and into the lake.

Please use caution when traveling to your cabin and when out on the lake. There is a lot of extra debris in the lake so only boat slowly while watching for floating docks and etc...

Hopefully some degree of normalcy will return this week.
