Minnesota Nature & Outdoors

Minnesota's landscape is defined by the convergence of the Mississippi and St. Croix Rivers, the rugged North Shore of Lake Superior, and thousands of glacial lakes. This collection includes the 53-foot Minnehaha Falls in Minneapolis, the historic 1910 Split Rock Lighthouse, and Eagle Mountain, the state's highest point at 2,301 feet. The selection spans diverse geological features, from the glacial potholes at Interstate Park to the Soudan Underground Mine and the preserved oak savannas of Wild River State Park.
