• Itasca State Park

  

  Between Park Rapids and Bemidji, Minnesota is Lake Itasca, the headwaters of the Mississippi River. People from all over the world come to wade across the great Mississippi without even getting their knees wet.

• Wargo Nature Center

  

  It was back in early December when I was looking for a trail in the north metro area that I had not yet hiked. Wargo Nature Center in Lino Lakes, Minnesota is where I began my journey.

• Katherine Abbott Park, Mahtomedi, Minnesota

  

  This community park is a 76 acre jewel. Ponds, trees, and rolling hills create variety in the scenery you will experience as you enjoy walking a few miles here.

• Superior Hiking Trail: Volunteer Weekend in Grand Marais

  

  Before this past weekend, I had no idea how much work goes into keeping a trail fit for hiking. Even though this trail looks as if it was worn into existence simply by many footsteps, it would quickly blend back into the landscape if not for the hard work of many volunteers. My daughter and I decided to give back to this trail we have both enjoyed in the past.
