My girlfriend volunteers with Tundra Swan Watch at Rieck’s Lake just before you enter Alma. Breakfasts at the Pier 4 Cafe and weekends spent at The Laue House ($30.00 per night in a restored mansion) mean that it’s cheaper to weekend in Alma than Minneapolis.
The Tundra Swan posts updates as to numbers spotted and when… The first few start showing up about a month or so before Rieck’s Lake freezes over, and they keep arriving until Rieck’s Lake freezes over.
