Minnesota’s beauty in many ways embodies the American spirit. We have scenery that truly encompasses the full spectrum of US natural features like rolling prairie, jagged cliffs and mountains, endless lakes, meandering rivers, marvelous caves, and jaw dropping waterfalls. Some of our most stunning places in particular have a knack for making us feel so appreciative to live in our state, and our country. It’s places like these that take our breath away, and cause us to reflect on how fortunate we are to be able to experience them whenever we want.
