I'm thinking Ft Snelling, race up to valley fare and back, then maybe through the locks to Mpls.
or the other way around...
looks like there are places to beach and have lunch above hidden falls, i was up the Minnesota as far as 169 last month there did not seem to be many decent looking places to beach.

Kind of depends on water level ...

The water level is down now so there should be some beaches on those parts of the river. I don't think I can make any boating this weekend. Maybe Sunday...we'll see.

It looks like good day to head to the St Croix. I will be launching at Bayport around 9:30.

I love the St. Croix, but there's too much going on there on the weekend for my little tiny boat
Laurie and I are planning to launch at Fort Snelling at 10:30, plan is to go up through the locks to Minneapolis and then maybe up the Minnesota after that time permitting
Lunch on a beach somewhere

I guess, Never been up here before
We're floating around right outside of psycho Suzies, we're going to pick up our daughter and her friend and the four of us are going to go back downriver

The river was great . I have not been on the St Croix that calm.

I had a blast with some great Glastron guys.

Will post some pics.
