Size: 1 mile EW by 0.8 mile NS - Shoreline 1.8 miles
Features: Large tract includes western end of Little Iron
Ore Bay. An old trail is in poor condition. The shoreline is rocky
and the west muddy during low water. The narrow beach has a large
stand of invasive reed canary grass. Dwarf lake iris are present
on the northern 3 ½ small bays.
Short-term plan: The walking trail could be improved and
marked as “no facilities - carry out.” A circle trail
would be an addition to the Island trail system.
Long-term plan: A logical candidate for preservation with
little or no development. An alternative, also due to its size,
would be well-planned development IF growth ever warrants such
a major change.
