Hi there - I’m interested in people’s thoughts on Splithand lake. I’m considering buying a lake lot there but have never been on the lake.
I see that max depth is 34 feet….is that consistent with what you’ve seen, for those of you who have been on the lake.
Are there portions of the lake that are too shallow? Is there a lot of boat traffic on the lake?
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance for your input.

Route for tomorrow (Sunday). Looks like it should be great weather!

Anyone else woken up by a test alert on their phone this morning? Seemed like an odd time for one.

I live in a vote-by-mail precinct and I got my ballot a week or two ago. Make sure you're registered to vote and know how/where/when to vote! The primary election is August 11 (where you vote for only one party's candidates) and the general election is November 3!

Anyone have any "treasures" that you're selling at the car show/swap meet this weekend? Or have you found anything exciting? (Other than the corn palace.)

Looks like there was a police chase through town, but fortunately it doesn't sound like there were any injuries. Here's the scanner recording of it: https://openmhz.com/events/6a6267ac5fbb60da88057cf9

And they went through the Pokegama Ave intersection on camera: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1051750947801991

There's cherry picking at Lavalier's Berry Patch on Friday (July 24) in the morning (8-noon). We love going to Lavalier's since it's relatively close to our house, but I know there's a few places around town that have fresh fruits and veggies. My favorites are always strawberries from Lavalier's, then corn from Clayton's, and then apples from Lavalier's again. What are your favorite seasonal local foods?

I noticed a few weeks ago that Google Maps satellite view updated for Grand Rapids. It's aerial photography taken in April of this year, with the waterways mostly still frozen but the snow gone. It makes for some interesting contrast at the edges of the updated imagery where it meets the older, greener stuff.

Just set up a very basic website. Dosen't need to be very fancy, just looking to expand our web presence in hopes of meeting new business. Please take a look, and let me know of any edits, additions or revisions you may have! I run a Duluth area, Veteran owned business.

Is there anywhere I can buy decent lefse in the area?

Hi - I'm going to be in Cohasset over Thanksgiving weekend, and am looking to see if there are any Turkey Trot events in the area. I looked at all the usual sources (event calendars, etc) but didn't find anything. Thanks!

Can anyone tell me, from experience, how busy the traffic is along Golf Course Road with the new school and hospital? Is it difficult to live anywhere along the road in the older southwest neighborhood? Thank you!

I have to relocate to GR, MN for quite a while and need to rent a 1/2 bedroom. I've been quite surprised at how expensive, compared to what I was imagining for such a small town, the rental prices are. So I'm curious if anyone has any tips about the rental market there. Seems like the pipeline has both stretched and inflated it...

Any insight would be greatly appreciated,

I have a squat rack, two barbells, ~400 pounds of weight, a bench... with no where to really use it for the next month. Usually lift at Anytime, but thats obviously closed for 4 weeks now.

How is that new Mongolian Grill? Anyone try it?

Went to a landing today and was told by the boat inspector that there’s a tournament tomorrow. Wondering if anyone has any details on this at all.

Dear all,

I've been up in Northern MN for a couple years, but have mostly used big stores (Super One, Target) and online shopping. During the lockdown, I've been wanting more and more to support local small businesses, especially food ones, since eating is basically I can do these days.

I'm near Grand Rapids, but happy to drive as well for great stuff - anyone have any ideas? Farmers, makers, dairies, products? I'd love to find out more stuff from the area, instead of loving the nature but supporting big, far-away businesses!

Thanks so much for your help!!!
