Yellow River State Forest: What Gives?

Awhile back, I came into possession of a large quantity of back-issues of Backpacker magazine. I have been slowly whittling them down, cutting out and filing any articles I think I would refer back to in the future. One thing I have noticed is that any time there is a 'best of' by region or a voters choice by region or anything by region, it seems that Yellow River State Forest in Iowa takes top billing. Now, I know this is Iowa we are talking about, so the bar is low, but what is the big deal about this place?
