Does anybody have some Intel on EP62 Clearwater Lake in the wintertime? Is that usually plowed all the way back from Gunflint trail?

I have not driven this specific road in the winter but Clearwater Lodge is at the end of the road by EP62 and offers Winter Cabin rentals (https://clearwaterhistoriclodge.com/). Thus I would be shocked if the road is not plowed all winter long. If you have any doubts I would just give Clearwater Lodge a call and ask.

Yes it is plowed to the entry point. And typically there is a road plowed on the lake up to the BWCA line but not sure if ice conditions are good enough for that yet.

There's a permanent pin at the top of the Winter Camping page that has at least some scoop on most of the entry points, but it is getting a bit old and could use some updating. It looks like the two links on the first post are broken, but further down someone posted an image of the tables.

I think Minnesotian is still around but not sure. Anyone know? I've got a couple suggestions and would be glad to help.
