Property Description
MICHIGAN 400-ACRE TRACT FOR SALE! This property is located in Torch Lake Township, in Houghton County, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. This is a great recreational area, surrounded by the Torch Lake, the Portage Lake, and Lake Superior. This county lies on the eastern side of the Keweenaw Peninsula, which juts out 75 miles into Lake Superior. You can take a circle tour from this property to find some of the most picturesque scenery that Michigan has to offer. In the fall the Keweenaw area is known for brilliant displays of color created by the special mix of sugar maples, birch and oaks of the northern forests. Brockway Mountain scenic drive near Copper Harbor is a popular tourist destination. There are trails to hike and bike. There are beautiful sugar sand beaches, and blueberry and raspberry picking spots to explore in summer. In the winter there is extreme Back Country skiing at Mt. Bohemia Ski Hill. Just north of Rice Lake Road, via the Post Road, is access to the Gay Trail, a Multi-Use State Trail. No matter which outdoor recreation you are interested in, and no matter which direction you want to explore, this property will be a great spot to start out from! The 400-Acre Tract was owned by various timber companies since the 1900’s. In the 1940’s a severe forest fire burned most of the tract, which created an excellent regeneration of about 150-Acres of aspen. In winter, when other deciduous trees are mostly dormant, quaking aspens are able to keep producing sugar for energy. Deer seek shade from aspen groves in summer. They also consume bark, leaves, buds, and twigs of quaking aspens throughout the year. Ruffed grouse are especially dependent on quaking aspens for food and nesting habitat. About 106 acres of land includes tree species of red maple, sugar maple, yellow birch and ash, with scattered spruce, fir, and white pine mix. About 25-Acres of land has northern hardwoods. Sugar maple, red maple, hemlock, basswood and yellow birch are the most common trees in Michigan’s northern hardwood forests. The McCallum Creek passes through north western parts of this property – This creates a wetland management area of about 128-Acres consisting of a mix of marsh, and beaver ponds. The largest pond is about 3-Acres in size and about 12 feet deep. The waters of the McCallum creek originate just north east of the property being offered for sale, and then flow westerly for about 4+/- miles and empty into Torch Lake. The creek may support brook trout. The ponds are visited by ducks, geese and wildlife native to wetland areas. It is recommended that this area be preserved and protected. The 400 Acres is currently enrolled in the Michigan CFA Program – The current Owners objectives are to manage the forest tract stands to maximize growth, health, vigor, in conjunction to support recreation, wildlife habitat and watershed protection. There have been turkey, whitetail deer, and bear sightings on this parcel. If a New Owner... Continued In Addendum
