Description
Autumn in all its glory at the St. Louis River in Jay Cooke State Park.
The Jay Cooke State Park protects the lower reaches of the St. Louis River and provides amazing views of this rocky gorge.
Historically, this area was a major barrier for the Native Americans and early Europeans traveling by canoe since the rocky gorge was not navigable. Native Americans and voyageurs made a 6.5 mile portage around it calling it the “Grand Portage of the St. Louis”.
The park is located just southwest of Duluth, Minnesota and is part of the state scenic byway known as Rushing Rapids Parkway.
