WICOLA has received the following update from the Forest Service on the White Iron burn:

The US Forest Service will NOT be conducting the burn on White Iron Lake as they had planned to do in 2016 as noted in earlier “Latest News Posts” from May.  However, the Forest Service will burn piles in the same area (Peninsula across from the inflow from Birch) today October 11th, so WICOLA members could smell or see smoke today.  Fire managers still plan to burn the slash they cut last year, but no date is set yet. 

Below is a map of the area for the area in question.
