Observation Tower at Lake Gartow

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

If you still have doubts about the ascent to the tower, you can think about it again on a metal bench right next to it.

Dog Off-Leash Area by the Lake

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

All in all a nice free running area where the dogs can go into the water, but there is a lot of bird poop in the meadow.
