Oh, what to see and do
We will be staying a Lake Bemidji SP early Sept and heading to Cascade River SP with stops at Pokegama Dam Campground and another night at McCarthy SP before heading on. According to Google maps we have an hour 22 min the first leg and an hour 11 min to McCarthy. What's there of interest during these short drives? Or even on our route to Cascade River SP?
I know it's a vague question, so here's some preferences. Vistas, sights, waterfalls, springs, local eateries, history, unique and unusual things, more nature and local color, including leaves & trees. Short hikes are nice, but short is the key word for two asthmatics with bad knees. Turn offs are T-shirt shops, general tourist traps, commercialism and chain or franchise stores. Don't need no stinking pecan log, nor Granny's fudge. Cheese shops are a plus as is smoked fish and fish markets in general.
Thanks for your help.
