Minnehaha Falls

 The final stop for the E family was at Minnehaha Falls. This was a new location for most of us. The falls along the Mississippi River were vital to the tradesmen, soldiers, and farmers who settled in the area. A history of the Minnehaha Falls can be found here: Minnehaha Falls

We saw only a fraction of the park, mainly the falls.

The water drops 53 feet over limestone cliffs to the pool below.

The E family taking a break after completing their 10K+ steps (and stairs) after the morning and afternoon adventures. Time to think about the next E family destination for 2024.
