Apple Blossom Overlook Park
La Crescent, MN
On the way to Iowa on October 25, 2024, we stopped to stretch our legs and get Cash some exercise on the trail in Apple Blossom Overlook Park just outside of La Crescent, MN. This was a nice little trail in a mix of open “prairie” uplands and mixed hardwood forest. The overlook looked down on the town of La Crescent and over the Mississippi River to La Crosse.
