Walking the Pilot Knob Preservation Site in Mendota Heights, Minnesota

In this video, Elder Trekker heads to the Pilot Knob Preservation Site in Mendota Heights, Minnesota, for a walk through this historic site. I hope this short walk inspires you to visit this site for yourself and to learn more about the role of Pilot Knob (or Oheyawahi to the Dakota people) in both Native American and Minnesota history. The mission of Elder Trekker is to encourage seniors to remain both physically and mentally active as they age by walking trails like this one.
