At Forest History Center

Grand Rapids

"climb the 100-foot fire tower... Do it! You won't regret it"
Wear sturdy shoes, you'll be around big hooves
Site admission is separate, budget time for the museum too

Get up close with massive draft horses: curry their coats, lift their feet, and learn to harness them to real logging equipment. Then watch these gentle giants show off the horsepower that built Minnesota's forests.
