Ham Lake Fire Update

     We are all thankful for the efforts of fire fighting crews and their determination to keep Tuscarora out of the fire’s path.  Amazingly, Tuscarora Lodge, their cabins, outfitting buildings and beautiful pine studded property has been saved, like an island oasis.  If you were to sit on a porch and look around the grounds then you would not even know there had been a fire so nearby.  The Ahrendts will soon resume business as usual and their neighbors, friends and guests will be happy to know their Gunflint Trail Paradise still awaits them at Tuscarora Lodge.
