When we arrived, we grabbed a bite to eat, and then headed out to Park Point. Park Point is a long sandbar on Lake Superior. The only way you get there by car is to cross the aerial lift bridge from Canal Park. We crossed the bridge, and made our way to the park. When we got there, we put on our snowshoes and began to walk down the beach. There were large ice formations and it was entertaining to see the water crash up against the ice.
There was a very cold wind as we walked down the beach, so we left after about an hour. Once we made our way back to Canal Park we got some coffee to warm us up a bit. We walked around for a bit, and decided to go to head up the hill to Enger Tower.
The trip to Enger Tower was a bit of an adventure. Many roads in Duluth are quite steep, and the ones we took to get to Enger Tower certainly were. There was some snow on the road, so that made for an interesting drive in addition to the great views from Skyline drive. We parked on the road into Enger Park and walked up to the Tower. At first I wasn't sure if the tower would actually be open, but it was. We made our way up the tower and took several pictures of the wonderful view.
The sun set and we called it a night after a successful day in Duluth.
