Boundary Waters Canoe Area lightning detection system installed at Gunflint Lake

September, 2000 a lightning detection system was installed towards the end of the Gunflint Trail on the shore of Gunflint Lake in Northern Cook County. The system was installed as a public service intended to aide in protecting the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness and surrounding resort communities. The system is currently operational, but will be going through several upgrades to further improve the system. Check back often for updates.
