On October 12th, 1918, a massive fire devastated Cloquet, Minnesota. It was the worst natural disaster in the state's history in terms of the number of lives lost in a single day.
A vivid look at the 1918 Moose Lake/Cloquet fire through the eyes of the late Carl Halverson. He was 11 years old when the fire occurred and stood mezmerized as passersby on highway 27 stopped and described the inferno to he and his Halverson family.

I've posted this before from a live show, also released it on a CD and David Hanners covered it and posted it. Still I rewrote a verse of it. Seems a little late, but I think it's a better verse now. This is about the great fire of 1918 that hit North Central Minnesota. Actually I should thank David for the new verse. When he was about to do the song, he wanted to know all he could about it. I did some more research and found an old newspaper story that talked about the train ride through the fire from Cloquet to Duluth. It inspired me to write a little more descriptively about it.

There's a great songwriter in the Twin Cities named Bob Nordquist who writes some wonderfully literate, melodic and thoughtful songs. You can check him out at http://www.bobnordquist.com/ and if you ask me, he's one of the best writers around. I've long been wanting to cover one of his tunes, and this one seemed right up my alley. It's about the Cloquet-Moose Lake Forest Fire that devastated parts of Northern Minnesota on October 12, 1918. When all was said and done, more than 450 people were dead, 38 communities had been destroyed and more than 52,000 people were either injured or homeless. Bob has ties to the area, and this song really tells the story in a way few people could. I changed a word or two here and there so I could sing it "my way" (as Sinatra would say) so if you have any beef with the tune, the fault is with me, not Bob, because his original is very good. The original (and better) version of this song is on his "Kettle River" album, which you can buy on CDBaby. Go check out his website and buy a CD or two. (And in the interest of full disclosure, I played mando on one of his CDs and wrote the liner notes for another one, and Bob and I have played gigs together over the years.)

Wildfires can be really sneaky and often begin unnoticed. They are usually triggered by lightning or accidents that most times are caused by irresponsible people. They spread quickly, igniting brush, trees, and homes, destroying thousands of acres of virgin land and killing innocent people. So next time you go camping or visit the forest make sure to put out your cigarette first or douse the campfire because the 25 wildfires that follow will hopefully help you realize that the consequences of an unmanageable wildfire can be terrifying, chaotic, and devastating.

Yesterday as we were returning home from the lakewalk, we came upon a garage fire on big lake road in Cloquet. I grabbed my handy little flip video and captured the event just after the fire dept. arrived.
We returned the very next day to survey the damage and it looks like the garage and contents were totally destroyed. The Camper trailer is torched pretty good on one side and the house, as you can see is already being repaired. No one was injured.
Recorded on August 5, 2010 using a Flip Video camcorder.

Forest fires. Location of events unknown. United States of America.
Fighting forest fires! Looks like western USA; esp. 2nd part. Pan across several men bashing at smoking brush. CU men breaking up smoking stump. LS pan across hilly forest area; w/ smoke and some flames. Closer shot of hillside w/ grasses & brush in flames. Some trees or bushes on fire; masses of black smoke coming from it. GV Slow pan trees burning; flames higher; fire growing. After fire: pan on entirely burned up forest.
US man standing up on a very shaky-looking tower. Cool shot - as if looking through binoculars; w/ black around edges - pan across LS looking out over forest hills - until coming to area where a fire is starting; thin line of smoke rising from middle of the pine trees. US guy up on tower again. On the ground: man comes running round corner of a log cabin and in the door to the telephone. CU Man (forest ranger ?) talking into telephone.

1918 Cloquet Fire
The 1918 Cloquet fire was a massive fire in northern Minnesota, United States in October, 1918, caused by sparks on the local railroads and dry conditions. The fire left much of western Carlton County devastated, mostly affecting Moose Lake, Cloquet, and Kettle River. Cloquet was hit the hardest by the fires. It was the worst natural disaster in Minnesota history in terms of the number of lives lost in a single day. In total, 453 lives were lost and 52,000 people were injured or displaced, 38 communities were destroyed, 250,000 acres (1,000 km2) were burned, and $73 million (US$ 1.148 billion in 2016) in property damage was suffered. Thirteen million dollars in Federal aid was disbursed.
Region overview
Carlton County was known for its logging industry during the early 1900s. Similar to other forest fires, the disaster took place over dry, harvested land which was vulnerable to potential fire destruction. The main workforce employing the majority of the area was the logging industry. The railroad industry, which was established in 1870 was a great boost for the logging industry. In 1874, a large lumber mill was built alongside the lake shore. The mill along the river gathered and floated logs down river, where they would be assembled and sawed for retail. When the logging industry was at its peak, one could walk across the lake due to the amount of logs covering the lake area.

Yesterday as we were returning home from the lakewalk, we came upon a garage fire on big lake road in Cloquet. I grabbed my handy little flip video and captured the event just after the fire dept. arrived.
We returned the very next day to survey the damage and it looks like the garage and contents were totally destroyed. The Camper trailer is torched pretty good on one side and the house, as you can see is already being repaired. No one was injured.
Recorded on August 5, 2010 using a Flip Video camcorder.

Forest fires. Location of events unknown. United States of America.
Fighting forest fires! Looks like western USA; esp. 2nd part. Pan across several men bashing at smoking brush. CU men breaking up smoking stump. LS pan across hilly forest area; w/ smoke and some flames. Closer shot of hillside w/ grasses & brush in flames. Some trees or bushes on fire; masses of black smoke coming from it. GV Slow pan trees burning; flames higher; fire growing. After fire: pan on entirely burned up forest.
US man standing up on a very shaky-looking tower. Cool shot - as if looking through binoculars; w/ black around edges - pan across LS looking out over forest hills - until coming to area where a fire is starting; thin line of smoke rising from middle of the pine trees. US guy up on tower again. On the ground: man comes running round corner of a log cabin and in the door to the telephone. CU Man (forest ranger ?) talking into telephone.
Danger; emergency; Disasters.
