One of the odd things that happened last year is that Gov. Tim Pawlenty proposed something new for the Iron Range that the state and even some local leaders didn’t even ask for or especially want. Pawlenty suggested that the state buy land along Lake Vermilion from U.S. Steel to create a new state park. Vermilion is one of Iron Range’s largest, most populated and affluent lake communities. With a few exceptions, million dollar properties on the Iron Range either include a private lake or they’re on Lake Vermilion.
