Reminisce about your time on the Midwestern waterways with the Grand Portage National Monument Hiking Medallion. The Grand Portage connects—through lakes, rivers and other waterways—the Gulf of Mexico, the Arctic, the Atlantic, and the Pacific Oceans. The hiking medallion depicts a bright red canoe, which was a regular means of transportation throughout the rich history that is preserved at the Grand Portage National Monument. Tack this medallion on your hiking stick to tout your experience at this historical trading post.
