Minnesota Lakes

One of the more interesting classes I went to this past weekend was on lakes. Minnesota has 14, 380 lakes if you count lakes as having 4 or more acres. Bodies of water less than 4 acres don't have the wave action that keeps the lake shore evident. Minnesota has enough shoreland to stretch around the earth and go from MSP to Paris and back.
