Cisco Lake boat access closed in GC

WATERSMEET — The Baraga Field Office construction crew from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources has temporarily closed the Cisco Lake boating access site in Gogebic County from Aug. 16-26.

The closure will accommodate the replacement of a damaged ramp and improvements to the parking area.

No alternate access is available to Cisco Lake. However, public access to Clearwater Lake is available 2 miles to the northeast.

The $20,000 project is funded through the Michigan State Waterways Fund, a restricted fund derived from boat registration fees, state gasoline tax and the Michigan marine fuel tax for the construction, operation and maintenance of recreational boating facilities, harbors and inland waterways.
