Hiking
The falls were formed about 9800 years ago about 12 kilometers downstream at the confluence of the Mississippi River with the glacial River Warren at what is now Fort Snelling near the airport.
As Minneapolis and its former neighbor, St. Anthony, developed, water power from the falls became a source of energy for various industries. Water power was used by sawmills, spinning mills, and flour mills. More on the history:
