What to Pack for Your Weekend Getaway in Minnesota

What to Pack for Your Weekend Getaway in Minnesota

Minnesota is a state with many incredible natural features, including over 11,000 lakes. During the summer, visitors enjoy swimming and boating. In winter, the lakes form locales for ice-skating and ice fishing. The time of year in which you travel will determine what essentials you need to bring on your Minnesota weekend getaway.
