Ice is looking really p***y. A good wind would take the ice out of the bay!

Fog is rolling through on the moors of Rainy Lake…listening for the hounds of the Baskerville! Still have ice and no open areas with evening temperatures of 57 degrees F.

Happy Birthday Voyageurs National Park!

Happy 51st birthday to Voyageurs National Park! 🥳🎂

For more than five decades, Voyageurs has been a place where memories are made and revisited again and again. It’s the splash of a cool lake on a summer day, the thrill of reeling in a first big catch, the awe of spotting wildlife, and the simple joy of time spent on the water with people you love.

These are moments that stay with you long after you leave.

After a milestone 50th year, we’re carrying that spirit forward. With growing support, new partnerships, and expanded outreach, we’re continuing to build a future where even more people can experience the wonder and wild beauty of Minnesota’s national park. 🫎🌲

Thanks to our passionate community of supporters, like you, these experiences will continue to be protected and shared for generations to come.

Here’s to year 51 and all the memories still waiting to be made! 🎉

This morning’s sunrise. As the axis of the earth tilts north, the position of the sun at sunrise appears more to the southeast and our days get shorter. Winter is coming!
