Weekend Hiking at Banning and Jay Cooke

This weekend I got so spend some time hiking at Jay Cooke and Banning State parks. In the coming days, expect to see an overview of Banning State Park, and a four part series exploring Jay Cooke State Park in detail. Because Jay Cooke is one of the top parks in Minnesota, I spend some time talking with visitors and rangers to help formulate a detailed report on what the park has to offer. I will write about a park overview, hiking in the park, recreational activities in the park, and finally about the geologic and more recent history of the park. Jay Cooke is what I consider a destination park, in that the park has so much to offer, one could spend an extended period there.
