We left campus at a brisk walk and did a 4.3 mile loop that is most often called the “observation loop” because it follows all of observation road. The loop offers some of the best views that
Duluth has to offer from
Skyline Parkway

. Although the air temperature was cool the bright sun was very warming and we make the loop in roughly an hour.See you next time!
