Today’s hiking adventure began at Six Mile Marsh Prairie Trail.

The sun was shining brightly as we began our hike. We made our way to an old red barn that was built in 1937.

We looped around the marsh.

After completing the Six Mile Marsh Prairie Trail, we hiked along the Dakota Rail Regional Trail.

About a mile or so down the Dakota Rail Regional Trail we approached a sign for the Big Stone Mini Golf and Sculpture Garden. We decided to check it out, and I’m so happy we did! They had many fun sculptures and farm animals on the property.

We made our way back to the Dakota Rail Regional Trail to continue our hike. A sign for Gale Woods Farm appeared just off the trail. We decided to check it out since we were so close. They also had a beautiful red barn and farm animals.

The trail looped us around the property.

Once back on the Dakota Rail Regional Trail, we hiked back to our starting point.

Today’s hiking adventure was 8.1 miles.

  1. I was at Big Stone golf once pre-pandemic. I’ve heard it has changed and gotten a lot more sculptures, which would be really fun to see.

    I enjoy reading your blogs, even though I don’t always comment. Your pictures are wonderful.

    I visited your mom yesterday afternoon. She seems to be improving in her abilities with her elbow.
