Was there a ccc camp on the gunflint trail?
Yes, there was a camp about 20 miles up the trail from Grand Marais. I worked in the camp in the summer of 1956 when it was owned by the US Forest Service and housed blister rust eradication crews. The camp was on the Brule river and consisted of a number of barracks, a mess hall and a blacksmith shop. There was a large railroad bell with a rope running into the mess hall. The cook would ring the bell to call the workers to eat. I have pictures of the camp but have not been able to paste them into this reply.
