The Red Cliff Reservation

The Red Cliff Reservation was created through a series of treaties between the U.S. Government and the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians (Red Cliff Band), the most recent being the treaty of 1854. The reservation is approximately one mile (1.6 km) wide and 14 miles (23 km) long, located at the top of the Bayfield Peninsula, on the shores of Lake Superior in northern Wisconsin.

The community of Red Cliff, the location of tribal offices and businesses, is three miles (4.8 km) north of the city of Bayfield, a popular tourist community adjacent to the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore.[4]

Transportation

Wisconsin Highway 13 serves as a main route in the community.

Bus service is provided by Miskwaabekong Transit in partnership with Bay Area Rural Transit.
