Around 1.8 million visitors travel to Cook County each year.//www.visitcookcounty.com/in-the-news/grand-marais-minn-named-one-of-the-16-best-places-to-live-in-the-u-s-2016-by-outside-magazine/ As of the 2010 United States Census, the population was 5,176,[1] making it the fifth-least populous county in Minnesota. Its county seat is Grand Marais.[2] The Grand Portage Indian Reservation is entirely within the county. HistoryThe first inhabitants of this area were the Ojibwe people. The first non-indigenous people to see the area were French fur traders, a few of whom settled in the area (by the 1830s the French population of this area was a few dozen). In the 1830s, settlers began arriving from New England and from upstate New York. Completion of the Erie Canal (1825) and settling of the Black Hawk War (1831) made this migration wave safer and easier. Most of Cook County's 1830s settlers came from Orange County, Vermont and Down East Maine (modern day Washington County and Hancock County). Most were fishermen and farmers. By 1845 the future Cook County contained some 350 people of European descent; by 1874 there were about two thousand. They were primarily members of the Congregational Church, Methodist, and Baptist churches. By 1900 there were about 3,000 people in Cook County. The first decade of the twentieth century saw a large influx of Europeans, from Germany, Scandinavia, and Ireland. These waves introduced Lutheranism and Catholicism to Cook County. The county was created on 9 March 1874.[3] It was named for Michael Cook, Territorial and State Senator[4] GeographyCook County is a rugged, heavily wooded triangle of land on the NE tip of Minnesota. It abuts the southern border of Canada, the western border of the state of Wisconsin, and is largely surrounded by the northern end of the Great Lakes.
