Inspiration Peak Historical Marker

Sinclair Lewis, the Nobel Prize-winning novelist, found inspiration at Inspiration Peak in Minnesota, praising its panoramic views of lakes and pastures. He lamented locals' ignorance of such beauty spots, musing about writing to the governor about it. Rising 400 feet above Spitzer Lake, Inspiration Peak has gained recent recognition as a landmark in northwestern Minnesota for its stunning vistas. (Submitted by JD M)
