Interstate Park at Taylor’s Falls, WI

ABOUT

If you’ve never been to the St. Croix River Valley area, and specifically Taylor’s Falls and Interstate Park, you’re missing out. The river and surrounding area with all it’s “pot holes” were cut by glaciers millions of years ago. It creates unique rock structures within the coniferous landscape that is Minnesota, resulting in unmatched beauty.

St. Croix River and it's basalt lava flow dalles. It amazes me how this little river can be so calm and unassuming in one area then raging and dangerous not much farther down stream.

The wildlife is pretty used to people in the park. This chipmunk let me get pretty close for a great photo as it enjoyed a small berry.The wildlife is pretty used to people in the park. This chipmunk let me get pretty close for a great photo as it enjoyed a small berry.
