GLADSTONE, MI-- Officials with the Hiawatha National Forest say people paddling the AuTrain River this summer will see lots of activity.
Timber harvesting will take place over the next few months. Residents may see heavy equipment, tree-cutting, and crews performing riverbank restoration. Most work will occur on weekdays, with the exception of federal holidays.
Recreationists can still canoe or kayak, but everyone is asked to stay away from equipment, follow all safety signage, and do not enter areas posted as closed or areas where heavy equipment can be seen or heard.
