This all-new hiking guide covers Minnesota's distinct areas of terrain and habitat—the northern arboreal forests, the western prairies, the deciduous forests, and the southeastern Mississippi River bluffs. These diverse areas offer a wide variety of hiking experiences, flora and fauna, and spectacular vistas. Ranging from easy walks of several miles to daylong outings, these hikes take advantage of Minnesota's extensive and well-maintained state and national parks. Bonus destinations of historical importance or scenic value also are described. Each chapter includes driving directions to the trailhead, a topographic map, trail mileage and estimated hiking time, a trail description with safety notes, and stories of the human, natural, and geological history you'll encounter along the way.
Gwen Ruff has been a writer and editor for nearly 25 years, working for daily newspapers, the University of Minnesota, and freelance clients. Ben Woit has worked as an assistant to a literary agent for over three years. He lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
