The Northwest, with its manifold attractions—its
lakes, rivers, forests, hunting grounds, and mountain
scenery—is impossible of description. It is such an
extent of interesting, wonderful, enchanting country, that
only a very few of the thousands who annually spend
their vacation among its glories have even a vague idea
of what is offered the tourist and pleasure seeker. It is
not the intention to attempt anything approaching a
description in this production, but merely to enumerate
briefly the points of interest and the routes by which they
are most readily and cheaply reached, together with the
cost of transportation, etc.
Minnetonka– beautiful Minnetonka—and the grand
Park Region of Minnesota—the largest natural park in
the world, with a surface dotted by thousands of charm-
ing lakes and groves, among which are to be had grand
sport for rod and gun, and where you breathe the atmos-
phere of the most healthful climate in the world—are
already and favorably known.

The productive regions of D; • *--~~~s Red
River Valley—the home of the great bonanza tarms, and
the most extensive and successful wheat-grown's portion
of the United States—have to be seen to be appreciated
and understood. -
The illimitable riches and resources of Montana are, as
yet, comparatively unknown and undeveloped, owing to
the difficulties that have heretofore existed in reaching
this territory. The extensive railroad construction during
the past year, however, has to a great extent removed
these impediments, and the country is now as easy of
access as any of the older and better known tourist resorts.
For the benefit of those considering the question,
“Where shall we go?” the following list of rates and
routes is submitted.
No pains will be spared by the officers or employés of
the Company to make the trip pleasant and profitable for
those who decide to visit the Great Northwest and the
resorts upon the line of the St. P., M. & M. R'y.
