This small community and township are named for Archibald
Guthrie, the contractor who built the railroad in this area. As should be expected, the
population of the settlement is much smaller than it was during the peak logging years.
However, Guthrie offers much potential for an enjoyable trail experience. The community
is characterized by a near level landscape and a mixture of forest and open countryside. A
cluster of houses, former business buildings, and a vacant church identifies the center of
development. Of major importance to trail development are the civic mined people in the
community and the attractive park bordering the trail route. A striking feature of the
park is a stand of very large white pine.
