The second half of the year 2024 in Baraga County, July through December, was a busy one
and the L’Anse Sentinel again shared a lot of news and beautiful pictures from around the area. This recap will share some of the top articles and some of the top photos from that
time. July The weather was beautiful and warm at the end of June/beginning of July and
the Alberta Fest took center stage at the Ford Forestry Center the very end of June and was
reported on in the first edition of the July paper. There were crafts and music, food, games and raffles and the very popular auto show featuring Model Ts and various types of older car models. A 30-year memorial took place at the Aura Hall the beginning of July for Roger
Roth, a smokejumper who lost his life in the devasting, quick sweeping mountain inferno in the South Canyon on Storm King Mountain in Colorado July 6, 1994. To read more, subscribe to the L’Anse Sentinel online, or buy a print copy at our local retailers.
