Grand Rapids grew up on paper and the Mississippi, and its two listed falls both hide up north in Bigfork River country. Little American Falls covers a mile out and back over easy ground. Deadmans Rapids runs the same mile, and dogs can come on both. Waterfalls come thin in this stretch of Minnesota, so fold either walk into a bigger loop through the north woods, where the driving between stops carries as much of the day as the trails do.
