Description
Lumberjacks cut in winter and the spring flows in rivers, creeks and ditches, helped to float their logs to different local mills on the Sturgeon River. It was not easy work.
Notes
This particular cut in Fell Township in Crystal Falls was also called Mageau and Field Lumber. Fell had very large trees that could be five feet at the butt, towering 120 feet high.
