Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument - This is a large park. It’s a little over 2 hours to Toadstool Hoodoos and 3 hours to the town of Escalante, D - Capitol Reef National Park - 3.5 hours from St. George, E - Arches National Park - 4.5 hours from St. George, F - Canyonlands National Park - 5 hours to Island in the Sky and 6.25 hours to the Needles district, G - Monument Valley Tribal Lands - 4.5 hours from St. Geroge, H - Grand Canyon National Park - 5 hours to Grand Canyon Village (south rim) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/0057b44a-a4ad-41ed-827e-712a341a06ad/IMG_4046+%281%29.JPEG Blog - Best Things to Do Near St. George, Utah (in Addition to Zion) - Make it stand out KOA cabin in Hurricane, Utah - near St. George https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1ae41534-620c-4011-860c-ec6c5c44f2dd/St.+George+_2+Map+of+things+to+do.png Blog - Best Things to Do Near St. George, Utah (in Addition to Zion) - Make it stand out Within St. George 1 - Pioneer Park - A free city park in St. George, UT. There are no playgrounds or swings, but there are arches, slot canyons, caverns, Moqui steps, and tons of rocks to scramble over, under, through, around, up, and down. 2 - Snow Canyon State Park (UT) - A unique place to hike which includes both a short slot canyon and lava tube caves that can be explored, in addition to some beautiful hikes. Bring a flashlight or headlamp for the lava tubes. 3 - Sand Hollow State Park (UT) - Enjoy swimming, cliff jumping, or riding ATVs through sand dunes at Sand Hollow State Park. Jumping Rock is a short 0.3-mile relatively easy walk from the parking lot. This state park is going to be better suited for older kids. North 4 - Red Reef Trail - A relatively easy 1.7-ish mile out-and-back hike along Quail Creek within a stunning canyon. The first obstacle involves some Moqui steps that require a bit of courage to cross. The trail continues upstream but will likely be underwater in the winter and spring months. 5 - Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - A relatively easy 2-3 mile hike through the desert to the Candy Cliffs, a hidden and strangely beautiful display of geometric patterns cut into red-and-white striped Navajo Sandston surrounded by green brush-covered mountains. Use the road from Leeds - the road from St. George is not well maintained. 6 - Kanarra Falls - A moderately difficult hike that travels through a slot canyon with four waterfalls. This trail goes through the water and feet and ankles will get wet. Permits are needed for this hike. 7 - Zion - Kolob Canyon - This part of Zion is not connected to other entrances. The viewpoints along the road are worth the trek, even for those that do not hike. There is one short hike, one medium hike, and several longer hike options (including backpacking routes). East 8 - Zion - Main Entrance - A free shuttle bus brings hikers from the Visitor Center to the trailheads (several months of the year). Hikes range from extremely easy to extremely difficult. 9 - Zion - East Entrance - The east side of the park is quieter with both longer trail options as well as unmarked places to explore. 10 - Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park (UT) - Explore a sand dune habitat and play in the sand. Walk up a dune and have fun running down, sledding down, or rolling down. Repeat over and over. 11 - Water Canyon - Managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Water Canyon is a rugged, wild canyon that has something for all adventurous souls. Enjoy a 2 mile out-and-back hike to the waterfall, a 6 mile out-and-back hike to White Dome or hike up into Water Canyon and rappel out. 12 - Belly of the Dragon - This is an amazing manmade water culvert under US-89 that is being carved slowly into a slot canyon by the water moving through the sandstone. Roundtrip trail is 0.25 miles 13 - Moqui Caverns (Kanab Sand Caves) - This is a short hike (little less than a mile out-and-back) with a very steep and somewhat sketchy sandstone hill to climb to get to a manmade cave. The best time for pictures is late in the afternoon. 14 - Kanab - A small town east of Zion National Park. Many local tours take off from Kanab - for those looking for a more adventurous vacation. Southwest 15 - Valley of Fire State Park (NV) - Another unique park with amazing, colorful rock formations, including a small slot canyon. Note that the Seven Wonders Trail, including White Dome, is closed in the summer months. Northwest 16 - Cathedral Gorge State Park (NV) - Also a unique park due to incredible rock formations - similar to Badlands National Park. The canyon can be viewed from both below and along the rim, and the park can be hiked in about 4 miles. There are separate, short trails that go through small slot canyons. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/0d4a3424-3f30-421f-951a-b4a791ed2eb6/IMG_7004.JPEG Blog - Best Things to Do Near St. George, Utah (in Addition to Zion) -

Best Things to Do Near Kanab, Utah (in Addition to Zion) - Make it stand out A - Zion National Park - 40 minutes from Kanab to the east entrance, B - Bryce National Park - 90 minutes from Kanab, C - Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument - This is a large park. It’s 40 minutes to Toadstool Hoodoos and over two hours to the town of Escalante, D - Capitol Reef National Park - 3 hours from Kanab, E - Arches National Park - 5 hours from Kanab, F - Canyonlands National Park - 5 hours to Island in the Sky and 5.5 hours to the Needles district, G - Monument Valley Tribal Lands - Over 3 hours from Kanab, H - Grand Canyon National Park - 3.5 hours to Grand Canyon Village (south rim) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/c4cd757c-2810-47a4-8521-0ee13908dd24/IMG_1145.JPEG Blog - Best Things to Do Near Kanab, Utah (in Addition to Zion) - Make it stand out East side of Zion National Park - on a warm day in March, before the snow melted and turned everything to mud… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/214b5957-ee90-4320-9722-2934469da955/Kanab+-+Map+of+Things+to+Do.png Blog - Best Things to Do Near Kanab, Utah (in Addition to Zion) - Make it stand out North and West 1 - Moqui Caverns (Kanab Sand Caves) - This is a short hike (little less than a mile out-and-back) with a very steep and somewhat sketchy sandstone hill to climb to get to a manmade cave. The best time for pictures is late in the afternoon. 2 - Kanab’s Peekaboo Slot Canyon - Peekaboo is a short, beautiful, and easy 1.0 mile out-and-back slot canyon near Kanab (not to be confused with the Peekaboo Slot Canyon in Escalante). This canyon does require an off-road vehicle to get to the trailhead. Vehicles can be rented in Kanab or ask a tour guide to take you there. 3 - Belly of the Dragon - This is an amazing manmade water culvert under US-89 that is being carved slowly into a slot canyon by the water moving through the sandstone. Roundtrip trail is 0.25 miles 4 - Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park - Explore a sand dune habitat and play in the sand. Walk up a dune and have fun running down, sledding down, or rolling down. Repeat over and over. 5 - Zion - East Entrance - The east side of the park is quieter with both longer trail options as well as unmarked places to explore. 6 - Zion - Main Entrance - Several months throughout the year, a free shuttle bus runs from the Visitor Center to the main trailheads. Hikes range from extremely easy to extremely difficult. 7 - Water Canyon - Managed by the Bureau of Land Management, Water Canyon is a rugged, wild canyon that has something for all adventurous souls. Enjoy a 2 mile out-and-back hike to the waterfall, a 6 mile out-and-back hike to White Dome or hike up into Water Canyon and rappel out. 8 - Sand Hollow State Park - Enjoy swimming, cliff jumping, or riding ATVs through sand dunes at Sand Hollow State Park. Jumping Rock is a short 0.3-mile relatively easy walk from the parking lot. This State Park is going to be better suited for older kids. 9 - St. George, Utah - A nearby city with a population of over 100,000 people. If you aren’t sure where to stay for lodging on a trip to Zion, this is a good city to check out as well to see what best fits your vacation needs. 10 - Pioneer Park - A free city park in St. George, UT. There are no playgrounds or swings, but there are arches, slot canyons, caverns, Moqui steps, and tons of rocks to scramble over, under, through, around, up, and down. 11 - Snow Canyon State Park - A unique place to hike which includes both a short slot canyon and lava tube caves that can be explored, in addition to some beautiful hikes. Bring a flashlight or headlamp for the lava tubes. 12 - Red Reef Trail - A relatively easy 1.7-ish mile out-and-back hike along Quail Creek within a stunning canyon. The first obstacle involves some Moqui steps that require a bit of courage to cross. The trail continues upstream but will likely be underwater in the winter and spring months. 13 - Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - A relatively easy 2-3 mile hike through the desert to the Candy Cliffs, a hidden and strangely beautiful display of geometric patterns cut into red-and-white striped Navajo Sandston surrounded by green brush-covered mountains. Use the road from Leeds - the road from St. George is not well maintained. 14 - Zion - Kolob Canyon - This section of Zion is not connected to the other entrances. This entrance is located directly off of I-15. The viewpoints along the road are worth the trek, even for those that don’t hike. The vibe feels very Sedona-ish. There is a short hike, a medium hike, and some long hike options (including backpacking campsites). 15 - Kanarra Falls - A moderately difficult hike that travels through a slot canyon with four waterfalls. This trail goes through the water and feet and ankles will get wet. Permits are needed for this hike. 16 - Bryce Canyon National Park - Bryce could be a long day trip from Kanab for someone that doesn’t plan on hiking much, or for those that like to hike, plan to switch lodging locations. This park can be a 3-day trip on its own. East 17 - Toadstool Hoodoos - The hike out-and-back to Toadstool Hoodoos is about 1.8 miles long, depending on how far one explores the hoodoos. There is minimal elevation change, parking is right off of the highway. This trail does not have shade. Bring extra water. 18 - Buckskin Gulch (Wire Pass Trailhead) - The most common trailhead for Buckskin Gulch, the longest known hikeable slot canyon in the world, is Wire Pass. Permits are required (but there are no limits for the number of day-use permits, so they can be purchased on the day of the hike). It’s 1.7 miles to reach Buckskin Gulch from the Wire Pass trailhead. Once in Buckskin Gulch, the slot canyon stretches for 20 miles to White House (for a through hike option) or 46 miles to Lee’s Ferry (also as a through hike). Note that overnight permits are limited and hard to obtain. 19 - White Pocket - White Pocket is an easy 2 mile-ish hike in an incredible, otherworldly landscape. To access White Pocket, a 4x4 vehicle is required, as well as knowledge of how to drive in deep sand. For those that do not own a 4×4 vehicle or know how to drive through sand, book a local tour. 20 - Page, AZ - Page is a little bit bigger than Kanab and has a more modern feel to it. Antelope Canyon can be a day trip from Kanab, but there are plenty of other things to do, which may make it worthwhile to switch lodging to Page at some point on your vacation. 21 - Lake Powell (Wahweap Marina) (including a boat tour to Rainbow Bridge) - Swimming, renting a kayak for a few hours, renting a houseboat for a few days, and / or taking a boat tour (including an option of a longer trek all the way out to Rainbow Bridge water-level permitting) are all options to play in and around Lake Powell. 22 - Antelope Canyon - Antelope Canyon is a slot canyon that requires purchasing a ticket and using a tour guide. The hikes are relatively easy, although some tours require steps or use of a ladder. Tickets are expensive, but this slot canyon is incredible. 23 - Horseshoe Bend - The hike out-and-back to Horseshoe Bend is an easy trail, but there is no shade. Additionally, the trail out descends the entire way, making the trek back to the car more difficult. Bring extra water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/5fd454bb-e5a8-4db5-b5fd-8f737aafa203/IMG_1251.JPEG Blog - Best Things to Do Near Kanab, Utah (in Addition to Zion) -

Entering Buckskin Gulch from the Wire Pass Trailhead - Make it stand out The main trailheads are Buckskin Gulch Trailhead and Wire Pass. White House is the exit point for the shortest thru hike. Use two cars or a shuttle. Lee’s Ferry is the exit point for the longest option through the canyon. Other things to do nearby are: Toadstool Hoodoos, White Pocket (consider hiring a driver), the Wave (if you are lucky enough to win a permit), Antelope Canyon (requires a purchased tour), and Horseshoe Bend. Kanab is a similar distance away to the west, and has several other places to explore (see my vacation planning guide to Zion National Park, which includes places to hike beyond the National Park). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/9834e84c-66c9-4a8e-99ac-b3709f00d5fb/Buckskin+Gulch+Through+Hike+Options+-+map.png Blog - Entering Buckskin Gulch from the Wire Pass Trailhead - Make it stand out Buckskin Gulch Map for day-hikers. A thru-hike between Wire Pass and White House is > 20 miles, and the last 7 miles are exposed to the sun, which could pose health risks for hikes in the summer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/210fc075-4e25-40e1-8f93-10e02a60fb34/11_14_IMG_6664.JPEG Blog - Entering Buckskin Gulch from the Wire Pass Trailhead - Make it stand out Tree lodged up inside Buckskin Gulch due to a flashflood https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/7626045f-0eae-41cb-a3df-9d00240e0e02/14_28_IMG_6711.JPEG Blog - Entering Buckskin Gulch from the Wire Pass Trailhead - Make it stand out Wire Pass Trailhead sign near the parking lot and vault toilets https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/821e1061-c00a-4489-b908-edd3d9aac6a1/Our+Hiking+Map+of+Buckskin+Gulch.png Blog - Entering Buckskin Gulch from the Wire Pass Trailhead - Make it stand out June 2025 - our trek into Buckskin Gulch - I’m not sure what “Buckskin Overlook” refers to.

All four us of had taken the classes together. Our original plan was to sandwich the boys between my husband and myself. When we were actually hiking though, we realized that the best way to show our kids that we trusted them was to at times let them check our gear and belay us. We also practiced friction ropes throughout this hike to practice, essentially belaying ourselves.

In addition to the main Zion National Park entrance (approximately 1 hour away), the following are cool places to check out (note that some of these places have hyperlinks to additional blogposts I’ve written, and some places I’ve visited but haven’t yet had a chance to write about). Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Approximately 50 minutes from St. George - go first to Leeds and take the road in from the east Snow Canyon State Park - There are three cool things to check out here: Lava Tube Caves, Jenny’s Slot Canyon, and Scout Cave. There’s no water here - this park is best in late fall to early spring - avoid the summer months. Pioneer Park would be perfect for any age, including young children. There’s a slot canyon, an arch, a small place for easy “rock climbing” (no ropes required), and lots of large rock holes to hide in. Red Reef Trail - This is a shorter hike that does require use of a rope in one spot with some foot holds. I did this with a 9 and 13 year old, so not impossible with kids, but there were moments I thought we were going to slip into the water. Ideally, this is probably an early summer to late fall hike. Sand Hollow State Park - We had fun cliff jumping here and summer is best for that. I’m not an ATV sort of person due to the noise of the vehicles, but there are several trails at this park for anyone interested. Dinosaur Tracks - This is flagged for a future trip - I haven’t had a chance to visit yet. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/75dc97e2-1a13-44f7-9306-41392535af95/IMG_3954.JPEG Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out Taking the “short-cut” to St. George and driving west from Yant Flat - This road is terrible! Go east and drop down to St. George on I-15. This picture is from a “good” section along this road… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/8f990166-9eb1-47d6-a7ba-5a9504ac7627/IMG_3344.JPEG Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out On the way back to the car, my older son offered to carry my bag in addition to his. When we took it, he asked why it was so heavy (as most of my water weight was already in his bag). I described items I had in the bag in case of emergency, and when I got “umbrella” he stopped walking, took off the bag, and started searching for it. Then he gave it to me. I wasn’t sure who was smarter… Me for thinking to pack it as portable shade, or him for taking it out of the bag so I could use it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/51f9577e-4ccd-4d3e-8863-e9fc035143bd/Candy+Cliffs+Map.jpg Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out Hiking Map from Yant Flat Trailhead to the Candy Cliffs https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/388dd2e1-94d5-40fc-b1ff-bb9b4e3e0eae/IMG_0817.JPEG Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out This was a short hike, but I’m showing this picture as evidence that we each carried a bag because we brought 4L of water per person, just in case, as we were hiking into the desert in the summer. Assume worst case could happen and be prepared for it. This is the middle of nowhere - people may not be here to help you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/34da4fd3-25a1-4ddf-ac95-9186a87173b3/IMG_0818.JPEG Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out There is about a mile of sandy trail between the trailhead and the main viewpoint - be prepared, especially in the summer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/9c90ebee-4940-43de-b627-ad6245b3a083/IMG_0820.JPEG Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out There are some tall Cedar Trees that provide brief amounts of shade.

The Mojave Desert is amazing - but do this hike in the morning in the summer, or pick a cooler month to explore. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/4af7a47d-1f63-4692-9d98-6cccfa2f2e3b/IMG_0915.JPEG Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out Yucca plants have extremely tall flower/seed stalks in the event they are covered by a sand dune. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/08336ff5-af59-4bb6-8c2e-25c03ae36824/IMG_5635.JPEG Blog - Exploring the Yant Flat Candy Cliffs - Make it stand out Moment the sandy trail ends along the way to Candy Cliffs.

Exploring Bryce Canyon National Park - Make it stand out Bryce Canyon, Sunset Point Trailhead - This was the only falling rock sign that we saw while hiking at Bryce Canyon. No rocks fell on us, but it seems worth sharing the warning. I very much agree with the recommendation to wear hiking boots with ankle supports. The trail is steep, and the sand / gravel along the trail can move a little bit under boots. We all slid a few times. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/ed93bde3-25cd-45c8-920f-c4f10be8c92d/IMG_5055.JPEG Blog - Exploring Bryce Canyon National Park - Make it stand out Bryce Canyon, Wall Street – From the trailhead, the Wall Street trail descends into the heart of hoodoos rapidly https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/b58c82a7-c345-4f21-b80d-0d0a830afe32/IMG_0361.JPEG Blog - Exploring Bryce Canyon National Park - Make it stand out Bryce Canyon, Wall Street – There are a lot of switchbacks – this keeps going for almost the full 0.7 mile trail.

There are rocks to climb around on in the river and spots to dip toes in. Swinging Bridge Up to the Rapids (blue) - It is approximately 0.6 miles to cross the Swinging Bridge and hike the loop near the rapids upstream of the bridge, and return to the parking lot. The elevation gain about 80ft. River Trail (green) - The River Trail (one-way) from the bridge to where the trail moves back away from the river is 0.4 miles, with an elevation change of 35ft. Silver Creek to River Trail (purple) - To turn the above hike into a loop, add 1.17 miles of flat trail. West Ridge Trail to Summer Trail To Silver Creek Trail (red) - To enjoy a longer hike, add 5.3 miles and an elevation gain of 500ft and make a large loop around the south side of the park. This trail goes through forest and meadows, and crosses a stream. Lost Lake (orange) - The trail out-and-back from Silver Creek to Lost Lake adds 2.25 miles with an elevation gain of 150ft. This is a pretty trail that eventually follows a stream that connects Lost Lake and the St. Louis River. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/f2e098e5-400e-48d1-899f-20fc6bd112df/Map+Close+up+of+St.+Louis+River.jpg Blog - Hiking at Jay Cooke State Park - Minnesota - Make it stand out Follow the “trail” I have marked in yellow.

Boulders are near the water to play on. Big ships entering the harbor relatively frequently. A fee is required for parking. 2 - Park Point, Duluth - This is a long sandy beach on the southern shore of Lake Superior across the Aerial Lift Bridge. Parking is free, and there are bathrooms and places to change in the summer months. 3 - Agate Beach - Mouth of Gooseberry River. This is a great river to walk up for a ways with water warmer than Lake Superior. Parking is next to beach, and is included with the MN State Park pass. 4 - Iona’s Beach - Beach full of pink rocks about the size of sand dollars. Parking is free. 5 - Pebble Beach - This beach is full of thin, black rocks the perfect size for throwing, and I would argue that it’s the best place in MN to skip rocks. Enjoy the beach and a beautiful view of the Split Rock Lighthouse. Parking is next to the beach and is included with the MN State Park pass. 6 - Black Beach - An interesting beach of black rock about the size of gravel. The rocks stretch to an island that can be wandered to without getting wet. The beach is right next to a free parking area, but the area begs to be explored, so expect to walk at least a mile or more while here. 7 - Baptism River Beach - Walking down to this beach and back requires a 1/3 mile hike and a few stairs. This beach is very small, but I’ve included it on this list because the Baptism River is incredibly fun to walk up. Bring water sandals and a small water net if you have one. There are crayfish that hide under the rocks. Parking is included in the MN State Park pass. 8 - Crystal Bay Sea Caves Beach - Note that this beach can’t be found using GoogleMaps. Parking is free at a small gravel pull-out after MN-1 along MN-61. A short but steep walk down a rocky area leads to a large protected beach. There is a stretch of sand which ends before the shoreline which has rocks a little larger than gravel. Two large sea caves are visible, but cannot be accessed without a boat. 9 - Sugarloaf Cove - This spot requires a mile loop hike and $5 cash collected in a box at the beginning of the hike. There is also a nature center that is open in the summer months. There is a peninsula to explore in the cove. 10 - Cascade River Lakeshore Trail - Other than a short distance along Pebble Beach in Split Rock, this Lakeshore Trail in Cascade is the only trail in the MN State Parks that is along Lake Superior. This isn’t a beach, rather it’s large rock that can be walked and hopped over for 1.5 miles (one-way). These rocks have holes in them that collect water from larger waves, which are fun to splash in. Parking is included in the MN State Park pass. 11 - Superior Hiking Trail Lake Walk - This is the only part of the Superior Hiking Trail that is actually along the lakeshore. This beach extends 1 mile (one-way) and is made of gravel along the shoreline. A note - hiking long distances in soft gravel is hard. Walk along the MN-61 shoulder that you can walk back along if it gets to be too much. Parking is free. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/ffd61708-d888-46b2-828c-61189be4c7ad/Canal+Park+Map.jpg Blog - The Best Lake Superior Beaches in Minnesota - Make it stand out Expect about a 0.75 mile walk between parking, the Aerial Lift Bridge, out to the lighthouse, and back (the path is marked in blue).

Out-and-back, this trail is 1.5 miles with an elevation gain of 50ft. There is a ramp up to the second viewing platform and steps to the other two platforms. Note that snow and ice reduce accessibility of the trail in the winter. Upper/Middle Fails (purple) - The hike out to Upper/Middle Falls adds 3.5 miles to the High Falls Trail (total of 5 miles) and 700ft in elevation. This trail is not paved. The section of the trail I have marked in yellow is swampy, with no views of the river. My recommendation would be to keep your feet dry and just hike out and back to the falls (for similar mileage). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/aaa06bd3-3aa2-43a2-ac02-af8cd7d12d19/IMG_7982.JPEG Blog - Exploring Grand Portage, Minnesota - Make it stand out Pigeon River looking out at Canada https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/0f865cd3-de5b-4175-b369-bd31ca17e884/IMG_6349.JPG Blog - Exploring Grand Portage, Minnesota - Make it stand out Same view as above in the winter.

Cascade River Loop (pink) - Keep going up the Cascade River for an additional 2 miles out-and-back (on the west side of the river to see two additional waterfalls, or hike the full 7-mile loop (with an additional elevation gain of 1,200ft). Hidden Falls (pink) - There is another place to park closer to Hidden Falls for those preferring not to hike the full 7-mile loop on the River Hike. This is a 0.8-mile out-and-back hike from the Superior Hike Trail parking lot, and has a negligible change in elevation. Lookout Mountain (green) - Add 1.7 miles out-and-back for the shortest option to get up to Lookout Mountain and back / Hiking Club Trail (orange, green, and purples) - To hike the entire Hiking Club Trail, the loop trail is 3.2 miles Lake Superior Shoreline Trail (blue) - Enjoy up to 3 miles out-and back along the shoreline rocks.

Adults - this is the whole reason to take your kids hiking and camping even though it takes a ton of effort to get out of your house. Teaching your kids to hike and camp enables them to go hiking and camping, and eventually will encourage them to take their kids. And so on and so on, and so on. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/a5751d51-66fc-4a2b-b135-66679fd38920/IMG_0168.JPG Blog - Hiking at Cascade River State Park - Make it stand out And here I am, in the same spot, teaching my son to walk on the banks of Lake Superior https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/6b2df5af-502e-4933-b7b1-cc45c4b5d5d0/IMG_0173.JPG Blog - Hiking at Cascade River State Park - Make it stand out Hiking isn’t just about walking - it’s also about sitting, splashing in the water, throwing rocks, listening to the waves, taking your shoes off and feeling the earth beneath your feet, and simply breathing. https://www.natureimpactsus.com/new-blog/2024/1/14/hiking-at-temperance-river-state-park monthly 0.5 2024-10-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1c45c9cf-05aa-4e1d-9a1f-bec7480c5c57/IMG_7948.JPEG Blog - Hiking at Temperance River State Park - Make it stand out West-side of Temperance River on the Upper Falls Trail - April 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/fef42d35-4ee0-4ed3-a126-f376e23d69a5/Temperance+Pin.jpg Blog - Hiking at Temperance River State Park - Make it stand out Temperance River Gorge Trail - July 2005 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/fe89204e-779a-4ec2-873f-cc44201b3bf9/7-IMG_7921.JPEG Blog - Hiking at Temperance River State Park - Make it stand out Fourth waterfall visible along the Temperance River - April 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/25e7f8fe-2d59-4d98-91d4-679c7283033b/1-IMG_7887.JPG Blog - Hiking at Temperance River State Park - Make it stand out Main parking area off of MN-61 leading to the River Gorge, Hiking Club, Carlton Peak, Upper Falls, and Cross River along the Superior Hiking Trail https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/915dcddc-7ebb-4d73-84ad-a9a49c6b5ab2/IMG_6305.JPG Blog - Hiking at Temperance River State Park - Make it stand out Mouth of Temperance River - Jan 2024 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/a3131f02-dab8-4c60-952b-e49e1353edc5/13-IMG_7101.jpg Blog - Hiking at Temperance River State Park - Make it stand out Trailhead for the Temperance River Gorge - parking off of MN-61 is just to the right of us in this picture.

Trail crosses a pedestrian bridge near the mouth of Temperance River to make a loop. Temperance River Gorge Trail (dark green) - 0.75 mile out-and-back hike along the rim of the Temperance River Gorge. The trail goes past 5 waterfalls, but many are rather difficult to photograph due to the angle from the rim trail. This is one of the best hikes in Minnesota. Hiking Club Trail (purple) - The Hiking Club Trail adds a 1.45 mile loop to the Gorge Trail. The rapids of Temperance River can be heard from above, but there aren’t many spots where the river is clearly visible. I would hike a short distance upstream and instead save the steps and hike Upper Falls. Upper Falls (yellow) - Out-and-back trail on the west-side of Temperance River adds 1.5 miles to the Gorge Trail, provides a better view of the last cascading waterfall compared to the River Gorge Trail, and adds one more waterfall that isn’t visible from the east-side. Carlton Peak/Tofte Overlook (brown) - The main trail to Carlton Peak adds 5.85 miles out-and-back to the Gorge Trail (for a total 6.6 mile hike). The shorter option is a 3.7 mile out-and-back hike from the Britton Peak Superior Hiking Trail trailhead (red). Britton Peak (lime green) - This trail is outside of Temperance River State Park. Parking is at the Britton Peak Trailhead on the Superior Hiking Trail. Out-and-back, the trail to Britton Peak is just 0.3 miles, and is the easiest hike to see fall colors along the North Shore.

I was able to hop the rocks to cross and reach the other side of the beach. I’m assuming this creek is dry most of the year, and was likely the result of recent snow melt. The point far off in the distance in the picture is Shovel Point (which can be hiked to from the Tettegouche Visitor Center). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/76bd8793-769a-4723-8f79-a15d8e05812c/IMG_7871.jpeg Blog - Hiking at Tettegouche State Park - Make it stand out The only way into the sea caves is with a kayak, but they are visible from the beach.

Wilke Glen and Cascade Falls in Osceola, Wisconsin Park along Depot Road and walk towards South Cascade Street. Go under the bridge and then follow the trail marked at #1. The trail will bring you back to the road for a moment. Look for a series of wooden steps near Sodie’s Cigar Shop (#2). The steps will take you to the Wilke Glen and Cascade Waterfall. Continue along the trail to the St. Croix River (#3). Head back the way you came for the easy stroll version, or follow the Eagle Bluff Trail for a more adventurous way back. The dots in the map indicate 0.25 mile increments. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1599925109468-LUHJXM80Y5D1WYY3J7V3/Eagle+Bluff+Trail+Map Blog - Wilke Glen and Cascade Falls in Osceola, Wisconsin This map is present at the top of the steps on the deck near Sodie’s Cigar Shop https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1599924916911-SRS17H0KG82D55WQ77E9/Osceola+Creek Blog - Wilke Glen and Cascade Falls in Osceola, Wisconsin Osceola Creek https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1599925232565-6FUVE9U64M36KH8F4H6U/Stairs+near+Sodies+Cigar+Shop Blog - Wilke Glen and Cascade Falls in Osceola, Wisconsin Stairs down to the waterfall from Sodies Cigar Shop https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1599925148515-AKVHJ1BMQGZFZE8Q9NAR/Social+Distancing Blog - Wilke Glen and Cascade Falls in Osceola, Wisconsin Keeping your distance while enjoying the falls in the era of Covid-19.

Our exchange student from Switzerland was egging me on - trying to say she was better adept at swimming in cold water. I was still young enough to take offense at that as someone who grew up in Minnesota, and yep, I jumped in. This water was not “scream-it’s-really-cold" cold,” it was “take-your-breath-away” cold. Not the best time of year or best location for swimming in the Interstate State Parks… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/2d1fea50-325c-449f-bf9f-0961e52ca581/IMG_9518.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Rappelling down the “Minnesota Strip” with Forged Guides https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/862619bd-3a77-40ad-8a54-ca7b9bb38590/IMG_4338.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out The scariest part of rappelling is walking off the top - But you’ve got a belayer above who both just watched you set up your gear and has got you on a second rope. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/77c89ee2-3e82-465d-9389-868ed45f0bfc/IMG_9369.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Rappelling down Tourist Rocks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/92f9bba3-2b4c-4b20-840c-8b6eaaffe292/IMG_9408.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Rappelling down Tourist Rocks at Interstate Park https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/103d8c6b-c478-4400-b192-c5496d35019c/IMG_4413.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Rock Climbing up Tourist Rocks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/9a7b646d-872c-410e-ac0d-c7158c8cd478/IMG_9612.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out I think going down is so much easier… But I almost made it to the top rock climbing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/ac284289-b5b3-4cb6-81e6-c41c700eed68/Minnesota+Interstate+State+Park+Map.jpg Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Map of Minnesota’s Interstate Park hiking trails. Parking is marked with black stars. The Visitor Center is marked with a red star. Wisconsin’s Interstate State Park trails are on the east side of the map. Pothole Region (lime green) - Short stroll over rocks to various potholes - this is more of an exploration than a hike along a specific trail. Path to the River (pink) - There is access to the St. Croix River along a short road from the main parking lot next to the potholes. This is a pretty spot to see the river, but there is not a beach. Unnamed Trails behind the Visitor Center (dark blue) - Short trail loops lead through more rocks, pine trees, and with additional views of the river. Walter Mondale River Trail to Railroad Trail Loop (purple) - A longer but still moderately easy trail. Sandstone Bluff Trail (grey) - Moderately easy loop hike from the campground into the bluffs. There may be a really small waterfall if it has recently rained. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/01dddba1-a254-4664-a66f-67c11dbf3112/Pothole+Trail+Map.jpg Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Minnesota Interstate State Park - Pothole Trail Map (lime green) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1577411714429-QNU5D6C5WQ0UOM3CYJJT/The+Bake+Oven+Pothole Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks From the bottom of the Bake Oven Pothole https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/304199a8-add7-4fbc-a5df-b8086208c238/IMG_8004.jpg Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Walking down into Bake Oven Pothole https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1577411772724-3J47U0426M8XZHRV09JD/Hiking+into+the+Bake+Oven+Pothole Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks At the bottom of Bake Oven Pothole https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/da2286db-c1f7-4633-ae1b-81794469eb40/IMG_7519.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Walking around some of the larger potholes https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/aa1d6389-7c5c-4122-80b9-b2248e1e9cca/IMG_0094_2.jpg Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Walking down at the base of the rocks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/b95ca349-c400-403d-8be4-14575c031e9a/IMG_7287.jpg Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out There are a lot of small potholes to play in https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/6e9ab358-7472-4321-8f4d-c020c14fa155/IMG_3717.jpeg Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Enjoying the St. Croix River views https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1e3d5da4-1926-43a8-bb99-c27d31bad82f/IMG_7522.JPEG Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Hiking with our nieces https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/0c0400db-f267-4e7a-942b-44f32cfdcdc2/IMG_7300.jpeg Blog - Exploring Minnesota and Wisconsin Interstate State Parks - Make it stand out Same arch, several years later.

During this family trip in 2016, we were headed out to Yellowstone and Grand Tetons National Parks. We left the Minneapolis / St. Paul area going first towards Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota. On the way home. we spent the night near Devil’s Tower (with an awesome campsite view!), and of course we stopped in Badlands National Park (one of my favorite National Parks) before driving back. This was atypical for us though, we usually spend the night in or near Rapid City, SD. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/da388a2b-e420-437c-94c4-c3438a6284df/IMG_2286.JPEG Blog - Black Hills: Family Adventure Guide - Make it stand out Custer State Park - Peter Norbeck Visitor Center - Wildlife Loop Road https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/b4539179-79c5-49fc-8b5c-d1d3824d341b/Black+Hills+Map.jpg Blog - Black Hills: Family Adventure Guide - Make it stand out 1) Badlands National Park - Beautiful National Park to drive through with several short hike options and abundant wildlife 2) Minuteman Missile National Historic Site - Three different locations - Minuteman Missile National Historic Site Visitor Center, Delta-01 Launch Control (underground bunker - tickets required), and Delta-09 Missile Silo 3) Wall, SD - Wall Drug - Quick stop for free water, 5 cent coffee and food at café, check out the gift shops, and if visiting in the summer months, the Wall Drug Backyard features an animatronic T-Rex 4) Rapid City, SD - Largest city in the Black Hills, with a population over 70,000 - convenient lodging location with several touristy activity options, restaurants, and places to buy anything that may have been forgotten when packing 5) Mount Rushmore National Memorial - Iconic 60ft face statues of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln carved into Six Grandfathers Mountain 6) Hippie Hole - A short 0.6 mile out-and-back hike to a swimming hole (with optional cliff jumping) - Note that the drive out to the trailhead is going to take a bit of adventurous spirit and a car with a bit of wheel clearance 7) Custer State Park - Sylvan Lake - Multiple hiking options as well as a swimming beach with canoe and kayak rentals available 8) Custer State Park - Needles Highway (SD-87) - Incredibly scenic drive past granite pillars (hoodoos).

One night after work as the lake was melting I brought a glass of wine down to the dock to enjoy a warmer evening. I peered under the dock to see how much ice was left and the muskrat was under the dock. I scared him, he made a large splash as he dove back into the water which scared me and I spilled wine all over myself. Throughout the spring and summer I saw him more and more frequently. Eventually he would completely ignore me as I sat on the end of the dock with my feet in the water and would swim with a few feet of me on his way back home. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1558203539178-SNJK0BWKCVHOAQT7P2TE/Monarch+Butterfly Blog - Why it's Important that We Connect with Nature I plant butterfly weed each year to increase the potential habitat for Monarch caterpillars in our yard. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1558203621576-2OPV7K879SWKGHR32F4N/Daylily Blog - Why it's Important that We Connect with Nature Daylily blooming in my garden https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1558203726470-XRJ5DJHMUW5YGJ3YH6JC/Duck%2Bon%2Bour%2Bdeck Blog - Why it's Important that We Connect with Nature Sign, yes, my deck needs to be re-painted, but I’m hoping you’ll focus instead on the duck who has decided to stop by and visit.

The hikes are relatively easy, although some tours require steps or use of a ladder. Tickets are expensive, but this slot canyon is incredible. 2 - Horseshoe Bend - The hike out-and-back to Horseshoe Bend is an easy trail, but there is no shade. Additionally, the trail out descends the entire way, making the trek back to the car more difficult. Bring extra water. 3 - Glen Canyon Dam - There is a visitor center right next to the Glen Canyon Dam with a short video explaining its construction. From the visitor center, it’s a short walk to the dam, and there is a pedestrian bridge for better viewing. 4 - Lake Powell (Wahweap Marina) (including a boat tour to Rainbow Bridge) - Swimming, renting a kayak for a few hours, renting a houseboat for a few days, and / or taking a boat tour (including an option of a longer trek all the way out to Rainbow Bridge water-level permitting) are all options to play in and around Lake Powell 5 - Hanging Gardens / The Chains - The trail to Hanging Gardens is about a mile out-and-back with an option to go to a viewing area for Lake Powell. The view of Lake Powell is the reason to do this hike! The Chains has a trailhead right next to Hanging Gardens. There is an option to swim at this trailhead or just explore along the slick rock. 6 - New Wave - There is a 1.2-mile loop hike at New Wave, right next to the Glen Canyon Visitor Center. This is on my list of future places to visit when I return to Page. 7 - Toadstool Hoodoos - The hike out-and-back to Toadstool Hoodoos is about 1.8 miles long, depending on how far one explores the hoodoos. There is minimal elevation change, parking is right off of the highway. This trail does not have shade. Bring extra water. 8 - Buckskin Gulch (Wire Pass Trailhead) - The most common trailhead for Buckskin Gulch, the longest known hikeable slot canyon in the world, is Wire Pass. Permits are required (but there are no limits for the number of day-use permits, so they can be purchased on the day of the hike). It’s 1.7 miles to reach Buckskin Gulch from the Wire Pass trailhead. Once in Buckskin Gulch, the slot canyon stretches for 20 miles to White House (for a through hike option) or 46 miles to Lee’s Ferry (also as a through hike). Note that overnight permits are limited and hard to obtain. 9 - Lee’s Ferry - Lee’s Ferry signals the start of Grand Canyon National Park. The access point to the Colorado River can be reached by car. This is a starting point for kayaking upstream (floating down) or whitewater rafting. This is also the exit point of a complete through hike of the Buckskin Gulch Canyon. 10 - White Pocket - White Pocket is an easy 2 mile-ish hike in an incredible, otherworldly landscape. To access White Pocket, a 4x4 vehicle is required, as well as knowledge of how to drive in deep sand. Tours to White Pocket are options for those of us without 4x4 vehicles or who don’t know how to drive in sand. 11 - Moqui Sand Caverns (also known as Kanab Sand Caves) - This is a short hike (little less than a mile out-and-back) with a very steep and somewhat sketchy sandstone hill to climb to get to a manmade cave. The best time for pictures is late in the afternoon. 12 - Belly of the Dragon - Belly of the Dragon is an amazing manmade water culvert under US-89 that is being carved slowly into a slot canyon by the water moving through the sandstone. Roundtrip trail is 0.25 miles. 13 - Kanab’s Peekaboo Canyon - Peekaboo is a short, beautiful, and easy 1.0 mile out-and-back slot canyon near Kanab (not to be confused with the Peekaboo Slot Canyon in Escalante). This canyon does require an off-road vehicle to get to the trailhead. Vehicles can be rented in Kanab or ask a tour guide to take you there. 14 - Reflection Canyon - Reflection Canyon is a “wish list” hike for me that I’ve included as it’s part of Lake Powell. It’s accessed however from the north side, near Escalante, down the slightly treacherous Hole-in-the-Rock Road. This is an 18-20 mile out-and-back hike. It is also possible to reach the canyon by water, from Lake Powell, and scramble up the canyon wall. 15 - Zion National Park - The east entrance of Zion National Park is not quite 2 hours from Page. Note that most visitors want to go to the west side of the park, which requires an additional 30-minute drive. For anyone wanting to spend more than one day in Zion, switch lodging to St. George, Springdale, or Kanab. 16 - Monument Valley Tribal Park - Monument Valley is about 2 hours from Page. This is worthy of a day-trip from Page. Or consider switching lodging. There is a hotel just across the road from the park entrance. 17 - Grand Canyon - It’s about 2.5 hours to the South Rim Visitor Center. I’d recommend switching lodging and staying in Grand Canyon Village to fully experience the Grand Canyon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1554577213127-MISGWBRJGJJEQFOB2FUS/Antelope+Canyon Blog -

The Aerial Lift Bridge is fun to visit. And there are day-cruises and train rides, as well as several museums. 3) Two Harbors, MN - Betty’s Pies 4) Gooseberry Falls State Park - There are short hikes to three large waterfalls and a longer hike to a fourth smaller waterfall. Agate Beach forms as Gooseberry River enters Lake Superior. 5) Iona’s Beach - Free beach full of pink rocks 6) Split Rock Lighthouse State Park - Pebble Beach is one of my favorite places to stop along the North Shore as it has a beautiful view of the lighthouse and a beach full of perfect skipping rocks. There are several hiking options, including an overlook and smaller waterfalls. Tours of the lighthouse are offered through the MN Historical Society. 7) Beaver Bay Falls - This is a short walk to a large waterfall but there isn’t a real place to view the waterfall from. This is also a free place to stop. 8) Black Beach - This is another free place to stop and enjoy a quiet beach of small black rocks. There is a nearby island that can be explored by foot. 9) Tettegouche State Park - This park has a bit of everything - Four waterfalls, multiple overlooks, cliff drops into Lake Superior, a secret beach with huge sea caves, and an inland lake large enough to kayak. Bear and Bean Lake is one of the most popular trails along the North Shore. 10) Ely, MN - This is the most popular entry point into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. There is also a large (and mostly secret) waterfall, the International Wolf Center, and two State Parks - Bear Head Lake State Park and Soudan Mine State Park, which includes underground tours in working mine cars. 11) George Crosby Manitou State Park - This whole state park is a secret, and it has a stunning waterfall. This is a very rustic park with minimal infrastructure. 12) Caribou Falls - Easy hike to an off-the-beaten-trail waterfall 13) Sugarloaf Cove - Interesting shoreline hike. There is a small fee required to park. A nature center is open in the summer months. 14) Cross River - This large waterfall is visible from the MN-61 bridge. Free parking is next to the bridge. There is also a quiet section of the Superior Hiking Trail with a couple of smaller waterfalls upstream for those looking for a longer hike. 15) Temperance River State Park - This park has seven waterfalls, and six of them can be viewed on a short hike, less than one mile. There is also a hiking option to an overlook. 16) Tofte, MN - For those looking for hotels, Tofte is great destination as it’s midway up MN-61. Note that this is a small town and hotels do fill up quickly. A nicer lodging location for larger families is Bluefin Bay. 17) Sawbill Canoe Outfitter - This is the closest entry point into the Boundary Waters Canoe Area from MN-61. Canoes and supplies can be rented here for a day or multi-day trip. 18) Oberg Mountain - This is an amazing, but very busy, overlook trail along the Superior Hiking Trail with no cost to park. 19) Lutsen, MN - This town includes the Lutsen Mountain Ski Resort. For anyone looking for a fancy lodging option, Eagle Ridge Resort is located in Lutsen. 20) Cascade River State Park - This park has multiple waterfalls that cascade, making it difficult to provide an actual waterfall count. Similar to Temperance, most of the waterfalls are within a hike less than a mile long. This is also the only MN State Park with a true hike along the Lake Superior Shoreline. Cascade also has an overlook hike. 21) Grand Marias, MN - This is the quintessential North Shore town - Grand Marias is the best place to shop souvenirs along the North Shore. Swen and Ole’s Pizza gets a shout out as well - I absolutely love their pizza! 22) Eagle Mountain - Hike to the tallest point in Minnesota 23) Superior Hiking Trail - Lake Walk - The only section of the Superior Hiking Trail along the Lake Superior shoreline. 24) Judge C.R. Magney State Park - This park has two large waterfalls. 25) Grand Portage National Monument - When visited in the summer months, this National Monument includes an interactive fort that depicts the life of British fur traders from the 1780s. Outside of the fort is an exhibit on the Ojibwe Native Americans, which is open year-round. 26) Grand Portage State Park - This park borders Canada and includes the tallest waterfall in Minnesota. The hike to this waterfall is handicap accessible. There are also two smaller waterfalls along a more rugged, (and slightly swampy) trail. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/39350ff1-16df-4766-8e0f-38302a998506/IMG_7714.jpg Blog - Planning a Trip to the North Shore - Make it stand out Swinging Bridge over St. Louis River at Jay Cooke State Park https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/d53b96a8-81e5-4e4c-986a-5f6ae4aa1cd9/Map+Close+up+of+St.+Louis+River.jpg Blog - Planning a Trip to the North Shore - Make it stand out Close-up view of Jay Cooke State Park’s best hike (follow yellow to blue and add an out-and-back along green for a longer hike).

We live in Minnesota, north of the Twin Cities where I am an engineering manager at a medical device company. I have a bachelor’s degree from Arizona State University and a master’s degree from the University of Minnesota both in Biomedical Engineering. My passion has always been in the environment, ever since elementary school. I spent many of my summers at Quarry Hill Nature Center in Rochester, MN, first as a student, then as a volunteer, and then as a teacher. Most of my time at Quarry Hill was spent outside, hiking in the woods and kayaking in the pond. One of my favorite memories was hiking up a hill with a group of 4 and 5-year-olds. When we got to the top, there was a deer; I loved the looks the faces of these boys and girls, most of whom had never come that close to an animal so big in the wild before. While I’m surrounded by walls at my current job, my mind is often planning my next hike, trip to the canyons, or camping adventure. I also think about how I should focus more on preventive medicine rather than making complicated and expensive medical devices that are aimed at tacking a disease so far in progression that it requires medical treatment. And this is where my thoughts start to merge together. It all revolves around the environment; nature’s impact on us, and our impact on nature. Having access to clean air and water, healthy food, and places of beauty to play and rest in. The world I want to leave in the hands of my boys isn’t a digital world; it’s a place with mountains and canyons, coral reefs and forests, adventures that don’t go as planned but result in stories laughed at over the years, and dreams that come true with the right amount of planning and practice, no matter how big the challenge. Water, air, and places of beauty are limited resources for which there is much competition. These posts are my ideas to help your children fall in love with nature, to fight for these resources to protect our planet, and to benefit in a having a healthy and adventure-filled life. You will find my favorite places to visit (including trail ideas for kids of various ages), tips for camping and travelling with your family, activities to teach children about nature, and ideas for how to educate yourself and speak out about local and national issues that have an impact on our environment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1537632691096-MKCKLI6UGLOX7HNDETC9/IMG_4566.jpg About Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/4b605660-68bb-469e-8166-869fbe539e0d/IMG_1323.JPEG About Me https://www.natureimpactsus.com/hiking-bag daily 0.75 2019-07-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1537668197036-45K31DIOTNF66LH9VTKG/IMG_4087.jpg Hiking Bag https://www.natureimpactsus.com/recent-posts daily 0.75 2019-04-06 https://www.natureimpactsus.com/camping-list daily 0.75 2019-07-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1538248028315-4S083C4DW3J2GAAJ77MT/IMG_5176.jpg Camping List https://www.natureimpactsus.com/camping-menu-ideas daily 0.75 2018-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1538252283489-JRH9FTAVHHFDENIHAADF/IMG_8929.jpg Camping Menu Ideas https://www.natureimpactsus.com/hiking-snacks daily 0.75 2018-09-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1538252101483-UEDHW5897CYZ1F0771HC/IMG_3687.jpg Hiking Snacks https://www.natureimpactsus.com/summary-of-lists daily 0.75 2018-09-30 https://www.natureimpactsus.com/search-posts-by-topic daily 0.75 2024-06-20 https://www.natureimpactsus.com/email-nature-impacts-us daily 0.75 2018-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ba2ec4c365f02a2a82230da/1543086839557-PY6DM1CKBRURP5298ZIR/IMG_0321+%281%29.jpg Email Nature Impacts Us
