Two Harbors today

Getting a little bit closer to Canada, eh?

We are staying at the Burlington Bay Campground, which is run by the City of Two Harbors. Some E/W sites, some FHU sites and some tent sites for a total of 102. Free Wi_Fi in the park.

Iron ore docks in Two harbors.

Dock 6 on left is no longer in operation.

Two Harbors also has the oldest operating lighthouse in Minnesota. It overlooks Agate Bay. It was built in 1892 and stands at 49'-6". It also houses a Bed & Breakfast on the site.

The Edna G. tugboat is docked along side the ore docks. It was built in 1896 and retired in 1981. It was the last of the coal-fired steam powered tugboats. It was built with a wooden hull originally then later converted to steel for ice-breaking.
