  • Something Klondike Park has that many other area parks don't is tall, rocky hills where visitors can see over the tops of trees - which is especially advantageous for viewing autumn colors.<br />
<br />
The park is a converted rock quarry. Some high, rocky bluffs overlook the heavily forested interiors. The water in the lake is clear enough to watch fish and some large turtles as well as the array of dragon flies. Of the seven or so short hiking trails, two are unpaved. The Lewis and Clark Trail runs parallel to Highway 94 and is the easiest and longest. The unpaved Hogsback Trail is the most scenic. Some mountain bike routes will test your skills.<br />
<br />
Located in southwestern St. Charles County, Klondike Park is a 250-acre park, acquired by the County in 1999. This park lies adjacent to Highway 94, with access to the Katy Trail and the Missouri River. The Klondike Park site has, in the past, been heavily disturbed by quarry operations and is a study of nature's resiliency. Primitive, basic tent camping and camping cabins are all avialable for rental, and the new beautiful Curt Loupe Conference Center is available or meetings, special gatherings, and wedding ceremonies and/or receptions.

  • Planning for the current Hennepin Avenue bridge, the fourth bridge at this location, began around 1980, coinciding with a period of renewed interest in the Minneapolis riverfront and its revitalization. In 1990 the current Hennepin Avenue Suspension Bridge was built on the site. During construction many buried features of earlier bridges were uncovered.<br />
<br />
The Hennepin Avenue Bridge is the structure that carries Hennepin County State Aid Highway 52, Hennepin Avenue, across the Mississippi River in Minneapolis, Minnesota at Nicollet Island. Officially, it is the Father Louis Hennepin Bridge, in honor of the 17th-century explorer Louis Hennepin, who was the first European to discover the Saint Anthony Falls a short distance downriver. Two of the three previous structures have been suspension bridges, while a third, which existed nearly a century, was composed of steel arch spans. <br />
<br />
The original crossing, which opened as a toll bridge on January 23, 1855, is believed to have been the first permanent span across the Mississippi at any point. Other bridges were completed in 1876, 1891, and most recently 1990. Today, the bridge's main span is 625 feet (190 meters) in length, making it rather small by modern standards.
