Moose Lake, MN (AGATE CAPITOL OF THE WORLD) is located about 100 miles
north of the Twin Cities Metro Area along Interstate 35. It is a very convenient
place to stop while taking a drive to Duluth or Cloquet. A very nice small

Celebration!
400 lbs of agates and $300 dollars in quarters will be spread out
by a truck
full of gravel on Elm Street on the 3rd Saturday of July. It's a wild scramble and its finders
keepers,
young and old will enjoy. Moose Lake is home to the world's largest
Lake
Superior Agate on record at 108 lbs. ( I don't think that there will
be one that
large coming off of the truck, but you just never know!)
