Most People Won’t Believe These 10 Epic Waterfalls Are In Minnesota
Minnesota is known for cold winters, thousands of lakes, and sweet corn, among other things – but there is one thing we are definitely not known for, and that’s waterfalls. However, as many Minnesotans know, waterfalls are something MN deserves to be known for. Not only do we have a multitude of phenomenal falls throughout the state, but we even have an underground waterfall, and a disappearing waterfall! That’s right. Despite what out of state folks are saying, Minnesota is the place for waterfalls and it’s time for people to start realizing that there are epic falls here, starting with these 10.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing.
