Lone Lake participated in the county AIS inspection program this year. We are waiting for the final recap from the county on the results of the inspections. These inspectors do such a great job preventing the spread of AIS between lakes.
This summer a vigilant inspector prevented the spread of Starry Stonewort into Lake Superior. See the article below for more information. Lake Superior is a very used waterway. The DNR has tracked the spread of AIS down the 35W corridor and across the state from 35W. We are very grateful for the work the inspectors do to keep our lake safe.
Starry stonewort introduction to Lake Superior prevented by watercraft inspectors.
Watch next year for information on how we can keep our own shorelines safe from AIS and how to inspect the vegetation for early identification of AIS.
