  • Glimpses of Early Dickinson County
    GLIMPSES OF EARLY DICKINSON COUNTY by William J. Cummings March, 2004 Evolution of Michigan from Northwest Territory to Statehood From 1787 to 1800 the lands now comprising Michigan were a part of the Northwest Territory. From 1800 to 1803 half of what is now the Lower Peninsula of Michigan and all of the Upper Peninsula were part of Indiana Territory. From 1803 to 1805 what is now Michigan was again part of the Northwest Territory which was smaller due to Ohio achieving statehood on March 1, 1803. From 1805 to 1836 Michigan Territory consisted of the Lower Peninsula and a small portion of the eastern Upper Peninsula. In 1836 the lands comprising the remainder of the Upper Peninsula were given to Michigan in exchange for the Toledo Strip. Michigan Territory Map, 1822 This map of Michigan Territory appeared in A Complete Historical, Chronological and Geographical American Atlas published by H.S. Carey and I. Lea in Philadelphia in 1822. Note the lack of detail in the northern Lower Peninsula and the Upper Peninsula which were largely unexplored and inhabited by Native Americans at this time.

VULCAN – A number of Indians – men, women and children – came into town Wednesday last from Bad Water [sic] for the purpose of selling berries, furs, etc., having with them a lot of regular Indian ponies. They make a novel picture as they go along one after the other, looking more like Indians we read about than those usually seen in civilization, and are always looked upon in wonderment by strangers, though it has long since lost its novelty to the residents here.

  • Eurasian Ruffe (Gymnocephalus Cernua), Native to Northern Europe and Asia, Have Threatened the Great Lakes and Surrounding States Since the Late 1980S
    State of Michigan’s Status and Strategy for Eurasian Ruffe Management Scope Invasive Eurasian ruffe (Gymnocephalus cernua), native to northern Europe and Asia, have threatened the Great Lakes and surrounding states since the late 1980s. The goals of this document are to: • Summarize the current understanding level of the biology and ecology of Eurasian ruffe. • Summarize the current management options for Eurasian ruffe in Michigan. • Identify possible future directions of Eurasian ruffe management in Michigan. Biology and Ecology I. Identification Eurasian ruffe, also known as blacktail Gary Cholwek – National Biological Service or river ruffe, is a member of genus Gymnocephalus within Percidae. Eurasian ruffe is a small, aggressive, benthic fish native to Europe and Asia. The species resemble yellow perch with distinct walleye markings (McLean 1997). The Eurasian ruffe can be distinguished from other perch by their large, jointed dorsal fin composed of 11 to 16 spines with rows of dark spots between each spine. Adult ruffe are typically five to six inches long with large individuals rarely exceeding 10 inches. They have a small, downturned mouth, lack scales on their head, and are slimy when handled (McLean 1997). Eurasian ruffe have two dorsal fins, one spiny (anterior) and one soft (posterior), and are commonly mistaken for troutperch, which have only a single dorsal fin. Their coloration consists of an olive-brown dorsal surface, pale sides, and a yellow underside (Fuller 2014, Hajjar 2002). Eurasian ruffe have two ventral fins with sharp spines on the leading edges; the anterior fin has only one spine where the posterior fin has two spines.

  • Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNRTF) Grants for 5 Active Or Completed Projects
    The COUNTY ALCONA MICHIGAN NATURAL RESOURCES TRUST FUND was established under the Kammer Recreational Land Trust Fund Act of 1976 to provide a permanent funding source for the public acquisition of land for resource protection and public outdoor recreation. Funding is provided by revenue derived from royalties on the sale and lease of state-owned oil, gas and mineral rights. This landmark piece of legislation came to fruition thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Michigan Oil and Gas Association, Michigan United Conservation Clubs and state legislators on behalf of all Michigan citizens. The MNRTF has contributed immeasurably to protecting our state’s natural beauty and helped paved the way for wise and prudent development of our state’s abundant energy resources. To date, the MNRTF has awarded over $1.1 billion in grants to Michigan’s state and local parks, waterways, trails and nature preserves throughout all 83 counties. Of this total, $245 million has been invested in trails. In excess of 1,000 public parks have been acquired and / or developed. Other projects funded include ball fields, tennis courts, trailheads, restrooms and other amenities, for a total of just under 2,500 MNRTF-assisted projects since 1976. ALCONA COUNTY Alcona County has received $644,100 in Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNRTF) grants for 5 active or completed projects.
