Blue Mound State Park

Blue Mound State Park                 

Aug 28- Sep 1

66e

40 electrical sites

13 miles of hiking trails
dump station in park

A neighbor's farm cats love to come at visit campers in homes for food.

There a number of trails to hike at the park.  One runs along the fenced in Buffalo area.  

With beautiful views 

sometimes you can only see the buffalo from a distance

Other times you can see them from a platform next to the road.  

We sat there watching them for more than a hour.  

Blue Mound State Park has 140 Buffalo with a pure blood line.  We are so lucky to have a state investing in saving and preserving the animal's blood line, breeding animals without defects.  Next year Blue Mound will be offering jeep rides to the buffalo because you might not see them in this vast park.  Not many states are preserving these animals.  It is nice to see two Minnesota State Park with Buffalo and soon one more to add to the mix.
