Paddle the Minnesota River State Water Trail in a Day

June 10th, 2017

River in a Day bumper stickerCan the 318-mile long Minnesota River State Water Trail be paddled in a single day? Absolutely, if we all work together! On June 10th, we're going to get as many people as possible to paddle every navigable river mile, from the headwaters near Big Stone Lake in Ortonville to the confluence of the Mississippi River in St. Paul. Paddlers will receive a participation boat sticker!
