Immediately to the west of Lake Glazon isthe 394 acre Brockway Mountain Audubon Sanctuary. This preserve is wooded with a mixture of northern conifers and hardwoods and provides a preserve for wildlife and the birds and waterfowl that pass through this major fly-way. Birdlife includes migrating birds of prey such as Broad-wing and Sharp-shinned Hawks and the occasional Golden Eagle. Twinflower, many orchids, plants of rock outcroppings and wet forest are found here. The nearest town to the west is Eagle Harbor, a quaint Lake Superior harbor town. It was once a Copper Mining boom town in the early history of the Upper Peninsula. Because there were no roads into this area everything was shipped there by boat. Supplies, settlers, and prospectors came in by boat and copper was shipped out from the Eagle Harbor, Central, Delaware, Copper Falls and other mines. You can watch the "Lakers" (Great Lakes freighters) and "Salties" (ocean going foreign ships) as they pass by upbound to Duluth or Canadian ports, or downbound to Sault Ste. Marie, and the other Great Lakes. This area is a great place for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or snowmobiling on hundreds of miles of groomed trails through hilly terrain. Just minutes from the property along the two-lane road that hugs the lake are Agate Beach, Esrey Roadside Park, and Keweenaw Shore Nature Sanctuary. Rock hunters will find samples of Banded, Bull's-Eye, and Lake Superior Agates; Thomsonites; and other semi-precious stones along these beaches. These areas also provide hiking, biking, bird watching, and nature trail exploring. The property being offered for sale shares characteristics similar to The Joseph and Mary Lizzadro Preserve which is a mile to the east. This Preserve is known for a high quality bedrock plant community in the Michigan Natural Features Inventory Study of Bedrock Shorelines.
