| The mighty bluffs & flowing waters of the Mssissippi River are also home to a large concentration of the magnificent birds. Those looking for one of the nation's most popular eagle viewing sites will want to head to the waters near Lock & Dam number 10 in Cassville. Clear, crisp winter mornings offer the best time to see the eagles at their most active. The eagles soar across the sky before swooping down to the flowing waters to catch their prey. Those looking to get the best views of the eagles can head to Riverside Park or the scenic overlooks of Nelson Dewey State Park. |

Bow and Arrow Historical Marker, WI
State Historical Markers [1]
In 1903, Jacob Brower of the Minnesota Historical Society mapped an unusual arrangement of boulders on the tall bluff slope located between the river towns of Hager City and Bay City. He concluded that the aligned boulders depicted a bow (200 feet tall) with an arrow set to shoot towards Lake Pepin while others thought it portrayed a large bird. The origin dates back to before the area was settled. A State Historical Marker and parking area is located adjacent to the Great River Road affording a distant view of the mystic site.
