The High Falls of the Baptism River is in Minnesota's Tettegouche State Park. This is the highest waterfall entirely in the state of Minnesota. The High Falls of the Pigeon River on the Minnesota/Ontario border is the only higher fall in the state.
Depending on where you start, the hike to the falls is one mile or three miles round trip. There are a fair amount of stairs. If you take the longer route, you will pass Two Step Falls on your way. Farther upstream the 45 foot Illgen Falls can be found. Unfortunately I was not able to visit Illgen Falls, but the pictures I have seen make me wish I had.
