  Amazing groomed trails,great flushable bathrooms in the chalet, only 4/5 due to the state of some of the signs at the statepark. If they can update the signs easily 5/5

  FYI the Fort Ridgely Historic Site is a completely separate entity from Fort Ridgely State Park. The Historic Site is managed by the Minnesota Historical Society, and the park is managed by the MN Dept. of Natural Resources.

  Learning about the history of this fort would have been easier if half of the placards weren't degraded to the point of being illegible. It also seemed like there was a narrative to the self-guided tour but we couldn't figure out if the narrative was meant to read clockwise or counter-clockwise on the walk. This site deserved better upkeep.
