The site is filled with living-history characters who acquaint visitors with life in a recreated 1900 logging camp and a log-drive floating cook shack moored on the Mississippi. A 1930s forest ranger's cabin, fire tower, museum exhibits and self-guided trails also are part of the Minnesota Historical Society site.
