History:
AURORA, founded in 1898 and incorporated on November 25,
1903, is a city in sections 9 and 10 of White Township (T. 58N, R. 15W).
The post office was established in 1903 and had a Duluth and Iron Range
Railroad station. This Latin name, meaning "the morning," is borne by cities
in Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and Nebraska, a township of this state in
Steele County, and villages and townships in 13 other states. Courtesy Minnesota
Historical Society
Aurora (1,478 alt., 1,528
pop.), its name from the Latin meaning "morning," is an eastern Mesabi
Range mining town that was moved from its original location to improve
its railroad facilities. Although ore had been found in paying quantities at Biwabik in
1891, most of the subsequent exploratory work was done on the western
end of the Mesabi. The Meadow Mine (exhausted), the first in the
vicinity of the unborn Aurora, was explored in 1898. A settlement grew
near the mine and, in 1903, was incorporated as a village. It soon was
evident, however, that the location (one mile north of the present site)
was too far from the Duluth and Iron Range Railroad, which served the
Vermilion Range and the eastern end of the Mesabi. Today's town site was
platted by E. J. Longyear, and building was begun in 1905. The village
then moved to its new location on the railroad, and a period of rapid
development followed. The mines here have not been operated so extensively as those on
other parts of the range, but vast reserves underlie the district.
Mining inactivity temporarily has checked the growth of the community.
Aurora is, however, the trade center for a growing number of miners who
have turned to farming, especially dairying, for a livelihood. It has a
municipally owned potato warehouse of 18,ooo bushels capacity for
certified seed and table stock. Aurora’s three tapestry-brick schools, Aurora High, Hearding High,
and Johnson Grade, stand on a 15 acre campus (corner 4th Ave. and
Vermilion St.). Shell-pink Kasota stone and Flemish-gray oak finish the
halls of the high school. The agricultural department supervises a
complete dairy room, in which milk is pasteurized for distribution to
undernourished pupils. The music department has a 3o-piece orchestra,
which has won -wide honors, and a 48-piece band. Housed in the high
school is a museum containing 225 mounted specimens of birds, 25 mounted
animals, 1694 mounted classified insects, miniatures of a lumber camp,
open-pit mine, and farm. There is also a large collection of
fossils-fish, reptiles, leaves, and plants. The Village Hall, built in
1930, houses the fire department and library. The village is within easy driving distance of the Vermilion Lake region,
the Superior National Forest, and Esquagama Lake. Colby and Whitewater
lakes, three miles east of Aurora, provide picnic, camping, and
recreational facilities. The WPA Guide to the Minnesota Arrowhead

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. |

creative sewing. I started with sweatshirt embellishments and
appliqué and now have written about making accessories, travel
gear, gifts, and napkins. It's fun to diversify! I've worked
with Marcus Brothers Textiles to design fabric collections and
designed embroidery cards with Viking, Cactus Punch, and Amazing
Designs. You'll also see my apron patterns on this website. |

Aurora
Wheelers is a group of men, women, and youth from the East Range
area. We are a new "not for profit" ATV club and are looking to
grow in membership. We believe that our sport is a great family
oriented activity. Each of our members have their own riding preferences.
Some of us just like to ride trails, some of us like hills, some
of us use our ATV's for work, and some of us like doing it all.
We are willing to trailer our machines to ride trails out of our
area. We ride many of the trails listed on the
trails page. We ride all brands and all sizes. Whatever
your interest is in ATV'ing and whatever brand or size of ATV you
own, you are welcome to join our club. We meet every 3rd Thursday
of the month at 6:30. |
