Greater Minnesota in Minneapolis
Lutsen has what may be the best skiing in the state (or a few states, given the otherwise flat geography) with cheap ski/stay packages. At 5 hours from Minneapolis, this is not exactly a day trip but worth the drive if you are a gravity addict!
Lake Mille Lacs offers good fishing, boat rentals and fishing guides.
New Ulm is famous for its German beer, German festivals, and amateur baseball tradition.
State Parks. The state has many well-kept state parks for those who like to camp and fish.
Duluth is 155 miles north on I-35, and is great for an over night trip. On your trip up, make sure to stop by Tobies in Hinckley for the world's most mediocre caramel rolls. Hinckley is a small town located almost exactly at the halfway point between the Twin Cities and Duluth.
