Walking the Wooden Log Across MS River |

Jane Walking Across MS Headwaters! Wow! |
We actually walked across, stood in and just were ecstatic in the opportunity to experience the Headwaters of the Mississippi River!!! To think this is the beginning of the Mississippi River! Wow! It is interesting to note that women were instrumental in the finding of and caring for the Headwaters. We both had the best time as exemplified by the photographs. More than anything, though, you can see the beauty of the area. All of the people around shared with each other where they were from (and they were from everywhere--even Mississippi), and this was fun. All seemed to enjoy themselves. We walked up a trail and found a wooden log you could walk across the river on, as you will see in the photos. We walked that, took photos, and enjoyed the beauty of the trail. We would recommend this trip to anyone coming to the Itasca State Park in Northern Minnesota near Bemidji.
