BESSEMER – The Gogebic County Forestry and Parks Commission will have improved access to interior areas of Little Girls Point area properties, following a land swap agreement. The board approved a resolution for the Gogebic County Forestry and Parks Commission to enter a land exchange agreement with Joseph Hilborn, or Wakefield. The county will provide Hilborn with 30 acres of county owned land in Wakefield Township, in exchange for 20 acres of Hilborn property in Ironwood Township. The county is essentially exchanging lands where it does not have legal access and receiving lands that bring access to areas around Little Girls Point where there is not currently direct access.
