This is the path from Minnehaha Falls to Fort Snelling. I love this path, it’s a destination bike ride for me. The surface is a little rough, but it’s fun to imagine the old trains chugging up this route on their way to Minneapolis. The new light-rail commuter train is just up the hill and you can sometimes hear it in the distance.

This is life in the Northern Deciduous Forest of Minnesota, a contiuous canopy of oak, beech, ash, aspen, maple and cottonwood trees surrounded by a wide variety of ground covering plants. As horrific as this place can get in the winter, summer more than makes up for it.

I explain how to take infrared photos here.
