Headwater of the Mississippi River

While in Minnesota, my friend, Sharon Smith, drove us north of Brainerd to visit the headwaters of the Mississippi River. The headwaters flow from Lake Itasca at  Itasca State Park. Depending on which list you consult, the Mississippi River is either the third or fourth longest river on our planet.















The photo below shows the stepping stones, which unfortunately were covered with cold, fast flowing water. I did not give it a try to cross -- nor did anyone else.

Loon....


There was still snow in the parking lot.
