The weather here in MN is almost unbelievable. My wife and I are going on our first camping/hiking adventure this weekend. Just thought I'd share some of the scenery from this neck of the woods.

We camp a lot in southern MN during the summer...hardly any mosquitos and no Ticks.

We went up near Duluth last July and the ticks were super bad. They said last year was really bad for them...and a few people came down with Lyme Disease. This year isn't supposed to be any better and might be worse. Ticks here think of DEET as a marinade.

CdnMN-Wow, what a great view of MN!!! :)

Thanks for posting those pics from your neck of the woods! Glad you had a great time camping this weekend.

I agree, there is nothing like being in the great outdoors, indeed!
