Superior National Forest Flood Damage Aftermath and BWCA Search & Rescue Effort

  • Summary

  • A severe thunderstorm with heavy rain swept across northern Minnesota on Tuesday, Jun. 18, significantly damaging roads and impeding travel within the BWCA and Superior National Forest.

    On the Gunflint Trail, some motorists were trapped by fallen trees. In addition, there was extensive flooding and washouts across county roads and highways in the area. A search and rescue effort took place in the BWCA when a tree fell on a 9-year-old boy while he was inside a tent. In this week's Outdoor News Podcast, host Kalli Hawkins hears from Tofte District Ranger Ellen Bogardus-Szymaniak, Cook County Sheriff Pat Eliasen and Woody Unruh with the National Weather Service.
