When we told Kevin that we were spending a couple of nights in Bemidji, MN, he suggested that we take a side trip to Itasca State Park, home of the Mississippi River headwaters. We're so glad we followed his suggestion.
If you want to see where the Mississippi starts, Minnesota Parks has a webcam you can view. We had fun waving to family members.
We then continued on the wilderness loop drive in the park. We saw some old pine forests and lots of spots that looked like they'd be good moose country, not that we saw any. Then we climbed the 100 foot fire lookout tower. Yep, we're pretty much done for the day.
