Pillsbury State Forest
Pillsbury State Forest is the perfect place to work off those cookies. If you’re feeling guilty, just hop onto one of the many trails here that cut through the heavily forested area and start the pedometer. Should there be snow on the ground, then bring your cross-country skis. This is one of the best places in the state for it. Think pedometers still work on skis?
Anyways, that doesn’t matter, because you’ll be distracted by the beautiful surroundings before it even hits 100 paces. The forest is dotted with little ponds, where you’re likely to catch a beaver gnawing away at a new log for its dam. And the wildflowers that blossom in the Spring will stop you dead in your tracks. Given the choice, we’ll pick Pillsbury State Forest over a cookie any day.
