History:
Marble, a city in Greenway Township, sections 16-20, was
incorporated as a village on April 20, 1909. The first homestead claim was
in 1888 by Albert F. Gross of Duluth, which became the Gross-Marble Mining
Company property; the village was enlarged in 1908 by the Oliver Mining
Company, at which time 20 of its 80 acres were reserved for a public park.
The post office began in 1908. Courtesy

Mesabi Trail
 The
Taconite State Trail stretches 165 miles from Grand Rapids to Ely
and intersects with the Arrowhead State Trail just west of Lake
Vermillion. Portions are paved for biking and in-line skating. The
remainder of the natural surface trail is used primarily for
snowmobiling in the winter. The trail goes through a few areas that
have standing water in the summer, however portions of the trail are
suitable for horseback riding, hiking, and mountain biking.
The Taconite Trail winds through forests of birch
and aspen intertwined with pine, leading the visitor by many
isolated lakes and streams. From Grand Rapids heading north, you see
the impact of the taconite and iron mining industry. The northern
portion of the trail terrain is rolling and tree covered as it winds
through state and national forest land. Eight trail waysides and picnic facilities offer
scenic vistas of the hills, lakes and rivers of this area. The trail
also links three state parks: Bear Head Lake, Soudan Underground
Mine, and McCarthy Beach. The landscape in and around Bear Head Lake
State Park is very rolling and rocky. |
