Forestry and Parks Committee Meeting Agenda Summary
June 2023
4. Land Trade: Ryan Frostman. This item was discussed during the February 2023 meeting. A
few modifications have been made since that presentation. Attached is their updated request. The
following is a general summary. The Frostman’s are looking to expand their Sand and Gravel
operations located east of Iron River along Highway 2. In short, they are asking for roughly 5 acres
of county forest land located along their southern lot line. The land would be approximately 170’
wide by roughly a quarter mile long. In exchange, the county would get roughly 10 acres of land
located roughly 1 mile to the south (also located along Primrose Lane). So a 2 for 1 land swap.
Both parcels are equal in timber value and both have frontage on Primrose Lane. The county would
also get a permanent easement on the portions of Primrose Lane that are located adjacent to
Frostman owned or controlled properties (Primrose is a private road). The easement would be for
forest management purposes only. The Frostman’s would also include 10 loads of material to be
used on a future county project. All costs associated with this transfer would also be absorbed by
the Frostman’s. Also attached is a map showing the approximate location of the land exchange and
easement. If approved by the Committee it would require a withdrawal from CFL (next item),
which would also need to be approved by the Board.
5. Resolution: CFL Withdrawal. If the above item is approved by the Committee, it would require
a withdrawal from County Forest Law. This item would also need to be approved by the Board
before sending to the DNR. Attached is a draft resolution.
6. Access and Utility Permit Request: Frostman. This item is separate from the proposed land
exchange. The Frostman’s are asking for a 10-year temporary access and utility permit along a
portion of Primrose Lane that is adjacent to county forest land. See attached Map. This would
involve a standard temporary access permit, but would also include permission to bury underground
power (which is also standard, though not as common). There would be a separate fee for each
permit, but each request would be incorporated into the same document (and expire at the same
time). To address the underground power, the right of way would be cleared by about 10’. Doing
so would also involve the removal of a small amount of merchantable trees. The estimated volume
to be removed is about 3 cords, primarily smaller diameter aspen and a few larger conifer. This
charge would also be included in the permit fee. I recommend approval.
7. Monthly Reports.
a. Forestry
Stumpage revenue for the month of May was below average at nearly $163k. Which makes
two consecutive months were revenue was well below the three year average. To date,
stumpage returns are at $1.4 million, which is below the pace of last year and about $400k
2
under the three year average for this time of year. Expenses are on target, with many of the
capital projects coming in well under budget.
a) Spongy Moth. Defoliation from Spongy Moth has already started and is predicted
to be high to severe throughout much of the Bayfield Peninsula this year. The
Ashwabay ridge will likely be one of the hot spots. We’ve posted some basic
information at the CAMBA trailheads alerting riders to what they will be
encountering. Red oak is one of the preferred food sources of this critter. Much of
the area is also in an abnormally dry period that is approaching moderate drought
conditions. Add an overmature, previously unmanaged oak resource into the mix
and the forecast isn’t good. The combination of severe defoliation, moisture stress
and old age will inflict a significant level of stress on affected oak stands. In these
situations, one of the management goals is to minimize additional stress. Timber
management activities, though positive over the long-term, can impart temporary,
albeit short-term stress to a stand. Red oak thinnings and shelterwood harvests
located within the areas subject to high levels of defoliation would be the most at
risk. Fortunately, we only have two red oak thinnings currently under contract
within these areas (and zero shelterwood harvests). Unfortunately, one is the
current timber sale within the Ashwabay SMA. As a result, sale 27-21 (the
Ashwabay sale) and 31-21 (off Big Sand Bay) will be temporarily suspended this
year. No harvesting operations will be allowed within either of these sales. Both
contractors have been informed and have agreed to forego operations this year.
Though some road preliminary work could be accomplished on 27-21 potentially
later this fall. Depending on conditions next year, the temp suspension could be
extended through 2024. Both contractors are also aware of that potential. This is
serious. We’ve seen thousands of acres of red oak die under similar circumstances.
The most recent occurring in the mid-2000’s. We will be monitoring the Ashwabay
block, as well as other oak stands throughout the impacted area on a regular basis.
Which will likely include a DNR flight to better understand the extent of
defoliation. If oak trees start dying in large numbers (which I am anticipating), we
may be looking at a salvage operation, which would have the potential to drastically
change the forested composition of the Ashwabay SMA. All this information has
also been shared with our rec partners. This is a prime example of how rapidly
things can change and the importance of maintaining a healthy and vigorous forest.
b) Carbon Project. Some good news. ACR has nearly finished the final review of our
project. Some of the final documents were signed this week. A summary of the
first reporting period was also reviewed. In short, our project will produce just over
558,000 credits as part of the first reporting period and credit issuance. It is
anticipated that ACR will approve everything within the next few days or weeks
and the credits formally issued shortly after. ANEW is actively marketing the
project. To date, they have secured a few smaller buys. I hope to have more to
report during the meeting.
3
c) Bass Lake Barrens. The DNR completed a prescribed burn on nearly 200 acres in
May. We are also in the process of completing the primary access road project
located along the western perimeter of the unit. This barrens area is now starting to
take shape. Mike was also one of the people interviewed in Emily Stone’s recent
article on the barrens. He accompanied her to a blind located on the Barnes Barrens
to observe dancing sharpies on one of the leks. There continues to be some local
concern regarding this new barrens area, primarily because it is a big change. But it
also continues to receive a tremendous amount of support.
d) FCOR. When the first carbon returns start to arrive, that will trigger work on the
various guidance documents. I’m anticipating this to start in late
summer….hopefully.
e) Land Acquisition Projects. All our major land acquisition projects have been
completed. Reimbursement of the Community Forests grant arrived this week.
DOA and DNR are still working to finalize the new ARPA grant contract. It sounds
like that new contract should be ready soon. If structured as planned, ARPA will be
used to reimburse the county for the entire Bark River purchase (roughly $1.028
million), with the remaining balance available to the county for a future land
acquisition project. We are already working with Landmark Conservancy and TPL
on a few new potential projects. And may have more to report during the next
meeting. Regarding the Community Forest grant, the final requirement is the
development of a separate management plan for each parcel. The deadline for that
is 6 months after reimbursement was received (so it would be due before the end of
this year). I plan to begin work on that later this summer as well.
f) Spring Timber Sales – Direct Sales. Ashland Mat agreed to purchase sale 27-21
(the Ashwabay sale). All other sales that went no-bid during the last offering, apart
from tract 17-23, have been posted to the website and are available for direct sale.
Tract 17-23 will not be offered direct, as it’s located on sand ground and should
garner a higher price during the next offering. The 7 acre red pine pocket decline
timber sale (tract 24-23) sold to Biewer for $25,807.
g) 2024 Budget. In general, we are not anticipating the level of capital projects that
were requested in 2023. Though there will continue to be improvements to the
parks and I’m anticipating some upgrades to the cabin at Twin Bear. FCOR related
projects are also expected to begin in 2024, but the lack of revenue to date will
make it somewhat difficult to budget. Work on the 2024 budget has already begun
and will start to ramp up later this month.
b. Campgrounds and Day Use Parks. The campgrounds opened on May 17. Use at Big Rock
has been relatively slow, primarily because the mosquitos have been horrendous. But Twin
Bear and Delta have been very active. Especially the boat launch at Twin Bear. The
Highway Department completed construction of the overflow lot at Twin Bear last week.
We are now in the process of signing it. New entry signs will be installed at Twin Bear
soon. We are still investigating options for future retaining wall work, and will be looking
4
to expand a small parking area at Delta (to accommodate overflow parking there as well).
Both of those projects will also be completed by the Highway Dept.
a. Brownstone Trail Project: There has been some Q&A with the DNR regarding our
current LUG grant application. And Mark has been working with Landmark on the
language of the lease agreement.
c. Trails and Recreation.
a) Motorized Trail Updates: ATV trails officially opened on May 25. We are working
with the clubs to install trail counters at strategic locations to monitor use. We’ve
also updated the maintenance contracts with all three ATV clubs, as well as the
Snowmobile Alliance.
b) Non-Motorized Trail Updates: Rec trail work on the Siskiwit Falls property started
this past month. Will Krift is completing the new hiking trail along the western
portion of the Siskiwit River. Attached are a few photos of the work. He will also
be installing a few steps along the existing trail on the east side to address a problem
area that keeps washing out. The Highway Dept will complete a similar project on a
newer portion of the trail located on the west side of the river later this summer.
Where larger steps will be installed to create a more sustainable trail and help shed
water. Trail improvement projects are also expected to start at the Lost Creek Falls
trail soon. And we are beginning to work on a more detailed forest and
infrastructure inventory of the Fire Hill property. This information will be used as
part of updates to the management plan for that property. CAMBA is in the process
of creating new bike trails at the Ashwabay location. We are also working with
CAMBA and Birkie on new bike trails located within the Cable SMA. Tis the
season for field projects.
c) Yurt Updates: We had to replace the dome on one of the yurts. And are dealing
with rodents chewing through the canvas on the two Bayfield yurts. Also chewing
on the wood on the outhouse at the Cable yurt (which will now need to be
refinished). Minor issues, but a reminder that these yurts aren’t maintenance free.
Below are the current occupancy rates for each yurt:
d. Events: The annual Women’s Mountain Bike clinic was held in May at the Ashwabay
location. The annual CARE run will be held in Cable on July 4.
8. Access Permit Renewal Request: Lee Deiss. See the attached map. The primary access road to
the Deiss property clips a small corner of county forest land. This access permit has been in place
for quite some time. No issues. I recommend approval.

9. Recreational Use Request: AOEF. Bayfield Area Trails Committee is in the process of creating
a new hiking trail from the Les Voigt Fish Hatchery to Mt. Ashwabay. A portion of that work has
already begun. The final stretch of that trail is proposed through a portion of county forest land.
Attached is a general summary and map of the project. If approved, this stretch of trail (on county
land) would be included in the rec use agreement with AOEF. I recommend approval.
10. Committee Members Discussion. This is a discussion only item and meant to provide an
opportunity for the Committee to provide reports.

Members Present: Fred Strand; Jeffrey Silbert; Larry Fickbohm; Charly Ray
Staff in Attendance: Jason Bodine, Administrator; Steve Probst, Assistant Administrator; Cassie Taylor,
Office Manager, Deanna Regan
Others in Attendance: Joseph Lebouton, WI DNR
1. Call to Order of Forestry and Parks Committee Meeting.
This meeting was called to order at 6:00 PM.
2. Public Comment:
None.
3. Approval of the April 10th Meeting Minutes.
MOTION: (Silbert, Ray) Receive minutes as presented and place on file. All: Yes. Carried.
4. Spring Timber Sales. Bodine presents the spring timber sale offering bid results: 24 of the 33 sales
offered were sold at today’s bid opening, resulting in just under $2.1 million sold value. Sales that did
not sell were typically mixed hardwood pulp, frozen ground only, and limited access. Potential to post
nine unsold sales as direct in the near future. RAY inquires about why Ashwabay tract didn’t sell and
Bodine responds that the restricted use of ATVs to access the sale may have kept contractors from
bidding. Bodine also presents the red pine pocket decline near Leino plantation, approximately 7 acres,
being offered direct as tract 24-23.
MOTION: (Ray, Silbert) Accept bid results as presented, including direct sale tract 24-23. All:
Yes. Carried.
5. Resolution: Accepting the NOAA Grant for the Sand River Headwaters Land Acquisition Project.
Closing date for land acquisition is scheduled for May 11. Contract with WI Coastal was signed last
week. County is now in a position of having more funds than needed to complete the purchase. DNR
and DOA recommend cancelling ARPA award so it can be repackaged for a future land conservation
project, apply NOAA award towards Sand River, include roughly $320k from Community Forest Grant,
and match with $320k county cash. Budget amendment has been changed, per Kim Mattson.
MOTION: (Ray, Fickbohm) Forward resolution to Executive Board with recommendation to
approve. All: Yes. Carried.
6. Recreational Use Request: CAMBA.
CAMBA requested construction of two new mountain bike trails on county forest land within the
Ashwabay SMA; Stick up-Stick down and Jump line.
MOTION: (Sandstrom, Silbert) Approve Recreational Use Request. All: Yes. Carried.

7. 2022 Accomplishment Report. Bodine presented Timber Sale Comparison over 10 years from 2013 to
2022. Timber sale establishment acreage is trending downward. Red pine poles and aspen are the most
popular products. Yurts are going strong but still down ~20% from last year. Campgrounds keep
breaking revenue records. Twin Bear may need overflow lot.
MOTION: (Silbert, Ray) Receive 2022 Accomplishment Report and place on file. All: Yes.
Carried.
8. Monthly Reports.
a) Forestry (all updates): Stumpage revenue for the month of April was below average at nearly
$190k. Current total timber sale revenue is just under $1.24 million, which is slightly behind the
three-year average. Expenses are on target.
a. Carbon Project. ACR is still reviewing project. It has now been 25 months since the contract
was signed. Marketing the project has ramped up and we are actively working with ANEW
on promotional materials.
b. Forest Carbon Offset Reserve Fund (FCOR). Once there is some definite movement on the
carbon project, work will begin on fleshing out various guidance documents for each of the
three core programs: land acquisition, forest management and recreation, with recreation
being the priority.
c. Land Acquisition Projects. There is an opportunity to reassign the previously awarded ARPA
grant to the recent Bark River acquisition, which would replenish the non-lapsing land
acquisition account to roughly $1.5 million, plus provide an additional $270k+ in the
remaining ARPA balance that can be used toward future acquisition. In discussion with
Landmark Conservancy regarding 900 acres in Orienta.
d. County Conservation Aid Grant. We were informed that there was a glitch in the funding
protocols and DNR wildlife funds could not be used for the Bass Lake Barrens road. Bodine
worked with the DNR to reassign the previously awarded conservation aid funds from the
lake access projects to Bass Lake (plus securing more) so the project can continue to move
forward.
b) Campgrounds and Day Use Parks. Campgrounds slated to open May 17. Coordinating with
Highway on various projects including overflow parking area at Twin Bear, repairs to retaining
walls at Twin Bear, and grading at Delta Lake and Twin Bear. Big Rock will need additional
attention to clean up from white pine branches that were most likely shed from the heavy snow
load.
c) Trails and Recreation.
a. Motorized Trails: Snowmobile trails closed March 31. Forest Service won’t rescind their
closure order until May 25.
b. Non-Motorized Trails: Starting to prep for trail projects: touch ups to Lost Creek Falls trail,
Siskiwit Falls trail improvements and construction, orchard maintenance at Siskiwit Falls,
and plan development at Fire Hill. Updating rec use agreement with CAMBA and Birkie.
Expecting work on Cable SMA plan to begin around the end of May.
c. Yurts. Current occupancy rates presented by Bodine.
d. Events. Nothing new to report.
MOTION: (Fickbohm, Ray) Receive reports as presented and place on file. All: Yes. Carried.
9. Lake States Forest Management Bat Habitat Conservation Plan. There are restrictions on when
trees can be harvested if within a certain distance of known bat hibernaculum or occupied maternity
roost trees. Also restrictions on when trees can be harvested for permanent roads and rec trails on public
lands. Member counties will be working with the DNR to determine best methods.

To: Bayfield County Forestry & Parks Committee
From: Mt. Ashwabay (Exec. Director: Doug Olson) dougo@mtashwabay.org
Bayfield Area Trails Committee (Chair: Kate Kitchell) katepkitchell@gmail.com
Subject: Proposal for connecting trail between the Mt. Ashwabay Chalet Trailhead and the new
Pileated Woodpecker Trail between the state fish hatchery and Jolly Long trail (see map)
Following is a proposal for a new connecting trail between the Mt. Ashwabay trailhead and the new
Pileated Woodpecker Trail (Meme Miikana) behind the fish hatchery. If approved, it would be an
addition to the existing Mt. Ashwabay agreement with Bayfield County Forestry and Parks.
The Wisconsin DNR has authorized the Pileated Woodpecker Trail and the short spur to this proposed
new link to Mt. Ashwabay under a land use agreement with the Town of Bayfield. This trail will be
complete upon installation of a pedestrian bridge across Pikes Creek by August 1, 2023.
Part of a Bigger Vision: This proposal is part of the Bayfield Area Trails vision for a well-managed trail
network interconnecting Bayfield Area Trails communities. With this new proposed link, trail users could
travel from the lakeshore on the Salmo Trail to the top of Mt. Ashwabay. Currently, also toward this
vision, efforts are underway to try to secure easements to connect the Salmo Trail to the end of
Chequamegon Rd. This depends upon the generosity of private landowners in the Port Superior and Pikes
Bay areas.
General Description: This 1.2 mile (2K) long trail would follow mostly old skid roads through a variety
of forest types. The route has been scouted and flagged, but the final alignment would be determined
based upon a site visit (or two) with County staff. Construction would entail clearing vegetation in an 8 to
12 ft. wide corridor. If steep slopes are encountered, water bars and or other structures may be constructed
to avoid potential erosion. See the map below for the route. Directional signage and information about
appropriate use willl be installed at the start and end and at all intersections to guide users.
Proposed Use: This trail is proposed primarily for hiking and snowshoeing. It is intended to provide an
opportunity for snowshoeing and to reduce potential conflicts caused by snowshoers using groomed ski
trails. In winter, the trail could be occasionally flat dragged to maintain a quality snowshoe experience,
rather than have a deep snowshoe rut develop through heavy use over the winter season. Although the
trail would not be groomed for skiing, classic skiers may choose to use the trail as a secondary use.
Proposed Start Date: We propose starting trail clearing and construction by the last week of July.
Construction will be completed by Bayfield Area Trails volunteers; although assistance from Bayfield
County Forestry and Parks’ equipment and an equipment operator would greatly enhance our ability to
complete the project in a timely manner. This assistance would be most welcome, if available.
