Brewer's Loop

Today I hiked Brewer's Loop section of the Superior Hiking Trail with ten other people who attend the University for Seniors at UMD. Here was my view from a rocky outcropping on the south side of the hill.

The weather was perfect for hiking. Aside from a few gnats we had no bugs. Some other people on the trail got stung by hornets but we were safe.

Here is another view from the south east side of the hill. The Duluth lift bridge is on the left. The trucks on Highway 35 look like tiny toys. The trail was dusty. Birches are not drought tolerant and some are turning yellow.
