Moose on a Stoop – Earn Moose Bucks!

The Moose on a Stoop educational scavenger hunt will take families across downtown Grand Marais searching for six signs that include unique moose facts.

- Just look for the moose with the voice bubbles to learn about our favorite animal and collect the code letter from each sign.
- Unscramble the code letters to create the code word.
- Mention it at the Cook County Visitor Information Center (116 West Hwy 61, Grand Marais, MN)
- Receive five Moose Bucks!

One Moose Buck = $1. Moose bucks will be able to be spent from Oct. 18 - 20 at participating Grand Marais businesses.

Grand Marais State Bank Moose Medallion Hunt

For the sleuths in the crowd, the Grand Marais State Bank Moose Medallion Hunt is a hoot.

The medallion search area includes anywhere within the city limits of Grand Marais !

The first clues are released Friday morning via our Facebook and Twitter accounts and go on until the medallion is found. Find the medallion? Bring it to the Cook County Visitor Information Center to claim your prize - $100 dollars Cash and $25 in Moose Bucks (Moose Bucks that can be spent at participating businesses through Oct. 20).

Meet Murray the Moose

Come say hi to our beloved mascot, Murray the Moose, who will make appearances and take photos with fans around town.

Take a Moose-Safari

Exploring the boreal forest by foot and boat is the best way to find moose, but you can also take a drive through prime moose habitat with our moose driving routes. Ranging from 1-2 hours, these driving routes will give you an opportunity to find our favorite animal in the wild. Even if you don’t see a moose, you’ll enjoy scenery that cannot be beat!
