Minnesota information
Minnesota is a land of striking, yet complimentary contrasts. For while this
"Land of 10,000 Lakes" offers endless outdoor activities and enormous wilderness
areas, Minnesota is also home to big city theater and arts, multiple shopping
and entertainment venues, and world-class medical facilities. Water and wildlife
as well as culture and business combine to create a diverse environment offering
something for everyone.
Forests and wildlife, rivers and lakes, and endless outdoor activities are
found in the upper half of the state. Huge environmental areas such as the BWCA
(Boundary Waters Canoe Area), Voyager National Park, and the Lake of the Woods
area provide habitat for countless flora and fauna and activities ranging from
canoeing and hiking to skiing and dog sledding. Wildlife such as deer, moose,
and wolf abound, and bear and wolf sanctuaries offer information and tours.
Also located within this northern half is the bustling city of Duluth and its
accompanying North Shore area. Here, business and industry are driven by tourism
and shipping via the mighty Lake Superior. Both international freighters and
small fishing schooners can be found just off Duluth's northern shores. Yet even
here in this busy harbor, outdoor escapes can be found along the breathtaking
North Shore Scenic Drive. Awe-inspiring vistas, quaint bed and breakfasts, and
rustic lighthouses dot this stretch of scenic highway (Highway 61) traveling
north out of Duluth.
The southern half of Minnesota is the hub of its business and industry.
Strategically located along the shores of the Mississippi River, the Twin Cities
of Minneapolis and St. Paul are the state's business, history, and governmental
centers. St. Paul, the older, quieter twin, houses the state's governmental
offices and most of its historic attractions and museums. Minneapolis, the
cosmopolitan, art-filled sibling, houses much of the state's business and
cultural activities. In addition to their individual offerings, the Twin Cities
are also home to numerous lake and river-centered activities, multiple
family-friendly amusement/entertainment parks (Valleyfair, Canterbury Downs,
Minnesota Zoo, Camp Snoopy), and the Mall of America, a world-renowned shopping
and entertainment complex.
Also located within the state's southern half are the quaint,
tourist-friendly towns of Stillwater and Red Wing, and the medical-centered city
of Rochester. Located just 20 miles east of Minneapolis and along the shores of
the scenic St. Croix River, Stillwater offers everything from quaint shops and
endless antique stores to river cruises and fabulous dining. Located just 30
miles south of the Twin Cities, Red Wing is Stillwater's little brother,
offering wonderful antiques, the historic St. James Hotel, and fabulous
entertainment along the banks of the Mississippi River.
While business and industry, activities and wilderness, and culture and
entertainment are scattered throughout the state, several commonalties serve as
links that bind together the state's major areas.
One such link concerns Minnesota's Native American heritage. Recognition of
the state's first residents, the Chippewa and Dakota nations, is found in nearly
every corner of the state with names such as Minneapolis (City of Water),
Minnehaha (Laughing Water), and Minnesota (Land of Sky Blue Water). Today,
decedents of these original Minnesotans operate numerous casino resorts
throughout the state.
Another link concerns the state's rivers and lakes and the impact they've had
on transporta tion, business, and trade. In addition to its over 10,000 lakes,
Minnesota is also home to the Red, St. Croix, Minnesota, and Mississippi rivers,
and its northeast corner hugs the shores of Lake Superior. These prime shipping
channels and the abundance of both grain and lumber were major factors in the
establishment of Minnesota as an early leader in the flour milling and lumber
industries. Together with the railroad development of St. Paul native James J.
Hill, Minnesota's business and economy grew out of its accessibility to
transportation as well as agricultural and forestry products.
A final link involves its weather and the presence of four distinct seasons.
With the temperatures averaging 12 to 18 degrees Fahrenheit in January and
February, winter in Minnesota is not for the weak of spirit. However, this does
not deter a plethora of outdoor activities including everything from skiing and
snowmobiling to ice fishing and snowshoeing.
Summer gives way to semi-humid conditions and temperatures in June through
September average 61 to 74 degrees Fahrenheit. Minnesotans are in full swing all
season, enjoying just about any outdoor or water-based activity. Fall in
Minnesota is brilliantly alive with fabulous colors slowly working their way
from north to south throughout September and October.
Today, Minnesota's ethnic, economic, and environmental diversity is its
treasure. Here in a land where nature and wildlife meet urban arts and
entertainment, there is truly something for everyone.
