Working to protect the Mississippi River and its watershed in the Twin Cities area

A Bird’s Eye View of History

Display Date: 
Saturday, September 22, 2007 — 10:00 am-Noon
Location: 
Mounds Park, Saint Paul

The area surrounding Mounds Park is as rich in history as it is beautiful. Join National Park Service historian Dr. John Anfinson and towboat pilot Hokan Miller for a walk and talk along the bluffs overlooking the river and downtown St. Paul.

From this vantage point, much of the river’s history can be visualized — powerful geologic forces, Native American burial mounds, tales of early explorers, the historic harbor and today’s busy working river.
