You can see this big gal from I-94, she is that big! Fun attraction, great views, small parking lot if you are mobility-impaired you may have a hard time getting up close and personal, but you can see her from the parking lot.

As advertised! She's amazing, the views from the top are stupendous and 100% worth the stopover. We went around 7:45 AM and it was a beautiful morning over the plains.

This is the second time we've seen her, but this time we got closer.

Sue is looking better than ever! She's a fun stop for kids, but not very accessible for people with mobility issues. It is a steep walk up to her.
