Together "Twin Cities" Minneapolis and state capital, St. Paul, paint a very urban picture that lacks not for cultural color nor pleasant parks with proximity to river, wilderness and Amish country for extra polish.
Do you like the idea of finding a campsite off by yourself, but you'd like to know ahead of time that it has a nice flat clear spot for your tent, a safe place for a fire, and a simple way to handle human waste without a trowel? You'd like the peace and solitude of a Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness trip but can't commit to a weekend for a permit? The Superior National Forest has many "backcountry" campsites that have tent pads, firegrates, and wilderness latrines (an outhouse without the house) that are located by themselves on lakes outside of campgrounds. Most are accessed by water, but some are hike-in sites including those along the Superior Hiking Trail. None of these sites are accessed by road.
We offer a compact version of Go-Minnesota for mobile users, allowing you to access just the information you need on the road. Of course, you can still use the full version of Go-Minnesota on your mobile device just as you can on your desktop.
