Pike's Peak, Iowa .... For those of you whose mental universe contains Father Marquette: This is the point where he first encountered the Mississippi River.

Not my fault Zebulon Pike named two high places after himself.... This is the Mississippi River shot from far northern Iowa; the town across the way is Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin; on the Iowa side you can find Marquette where the bridge crosses and McGregor across from the parked barges. Very pretty place. We just spent a week camped within an easy walk of this view.
