Indoor Hike

Walked a few miles around Downtown with friends without ever going outside to the bitter cold. The Father of Waters towered over us in Minneapolis City Hall.

A New Walking Route

Walked to this view along a road I had never walked along before. I had previously, incorrectly, thought the road, connecting two University of Minnesota district heating plants, was private.

Patient Canoes

While I walked, canoes waited for the ice to melt on Lake of the Isles, Minneapolis.

Icy Impressionism

On my walk: an icy Mississippi created an Impressionist scene.

Mount Toyama

Hiked a gnarly trail: extensive tree roots, scree, erosion, fallen trees, 2,300 feet gain in two hours, no switchbacks. Walking down was even harder than the climb. A guy, older than me, was doing this with camping gear. Mount Toyama (7,230 feet), Nikko National Park.
