80 beautiful acres north of Aurora offering a private Northwoods escape with excellent hunting and recreation opportunities. The property directly abuts thousands of acres of state land and has consistently produced grouse, deer, and black bear. Cleared walking trails wind throughout the property, making it easy to explore the woods and ridge lines. Nestled into the ridge sits a well-insulated 21’ x 16’ off-grid shack with an efficient wood stove and large windows overlooking the surrounding forest. The structure is wired and ready for your finishing touches. Located close to Giants Ridge — visible looking west from the property — and near the Mesabi Trail for biking and outdoor recreation. A true northern Minnesota getaway with privacy, wildlife, trails, and direct access to vast public land
