If you'd like to visit 'Tommy,' you have about a 3-hour drive due north ahead of you. Tommy is the world's largest turtle as he sits 30-feet tall. His snowmobile is also the largest of its kind at 34-feet long. He resides next to some tennis courts so although it has yet to be determined if Tommy's a tennis fan. Tommy the Turtle is also known to symbolize the 'Gateway to the Turtle Mountains.'
