Gidday from the frozen North! Aldy and I are coming to Minneapolis for a 2 week stay March 22-Apr 2. She'll be working 8-5, and I'll be caching all day. Any advice, recommendations, news of EVENTS, and other caching opportunities welcome! 
On Sat the 21st we are driving a loop to Fargo ND via St Cloud, grabbing the earthcaches along the way, then dipping into SD before returning to MPLS.
We are staying in the vicinity of N44° 58.065 W93° 21.464. I'll check in from time to time for updates, or you can email / pm me anytime. 
TIA |

There is an earthcache in Ortonville just inside MN border from SD, And also one in Willmar. Not sure what kind of route you are looking at when you get to SD to return to the cities.

Roseville, MN is a great place to spend a few days caching. So are Bloomington and Eden Prairie. High cache density in all of those areas. We are also blessed with many huge parks in the metro area, all of them chock full of great caches!

I have a lot of finds near where you'll be staying. Most of the caches in this part of town are pretty easy to access. If you'd like a good walk in the woods go to Wirth Park, a bit east and north.
Here are some caches not far from your listed coords that I thought were fun to find:
GC12WPA
GC16A2Z
GC14FQ0
GC1A8JA
GCR40E
GC1A6QN
GC179J1

Thanks all!
I'm bound to town during the week since Aldy is teaching. Weekends are set for road trips to ND, SD on Sat, then WI on Sunday. Then 4 more days in MPLS until we head south to Dallas.
If there's something happening on weeknights, please let me know so we can come out for a drink, exchange geocoins, etc... |
