This state park is located in NW Minnesota. I was born and raised thirty miles north of the park and spent many childhood hours walking the trails and grouse hunting the nearby state forests. It's one of my favorite places and I spend several weeks each fall in Itasca fishing, hiking, and photographing little slices of this 100 square mile park. It's big claim to fame is The "Headwaters" of the Mississippi river, it's a popular spot with visitors and is featured several times in this gallery. Hope you enjoy!
