Park Rapids Downtown Webcam

If you clicked into this webcam thinking you’d found a live feed showing a swiftly flowing river or might get to see some white water rafting, try a different search. This cam is focused on the dry and dusty downtown of the city of Park Rapids in Minnesota and there’s not a drop of water to be seen anywhere.

Does Park Rapids have any claim to fame? Not really, but they might have done if someone hadn’t dammed the Fish Hook River where the rapids were that the city was named after. Still even if you can’t see any water on this cam, there is plenty nearby as Park Rapids is close to around seventy lakes. Maybe it’s time the locals considered changing the city’s name from rapids to lake as it seems a more fitting description. Park Lakes has quite a good ring to it, don’t you think?
