Hello. I believe it is 5.1-miles. Here is a map of it from the parks website. The video is following the gray highlighted dotted path. Mileage is shown between each dot. Those dots are where these maps signs are that you see in the video.

Thanks for watching. Yes, gone through a few bottles of bug spray already. Had a lot of rain this years, so the buggers are thick.

Glad you enjoyed it!

@@midwesttrails7341 Sure did! Just great!!

Not sure what you said, but thanks for watching.

Lots of pretty trails around here. Florida's got some nice trails too. I've done parts of the Florida National Scenic Trail.

I agree that is the best overlook on the trail. There are a couple others that are close.

Thank you!

Thanks for visiting.

Glad you like them! Creating a virtual walk of the entire Ice Age Trail.

I'm doing the whole Ice Age Trail so I'm posting all the segments. Some segments are very scenic, others are so-so.

My pleasure! Many more miles to go to reach the other side of Wisconsin. Thanks for watching.

Some nice trees in this area that the loggers missed.

It was. This was November 16, 2023. Normally there is some snow on the ground this time of year. Was very warm fall.

It's crunchy when it's dry, slurpy when its wet and muddy.

Glad you liked the virtual hike. Lots more coming.

Was in London a few months ago. Did a lot of the walks that you show on your channel. Great walking city.

@@midwesttrails7341 Thanks! I wish we had some more Forest Trails for Hiking like you show in your walks. We do have a couple, but its mostly small and medium size parks due to the Urban Landscape

Thank you. Don't think I've seen the skeeters this bad. All the rain really got them swarming.

This is a good trail for it. All kinds of terrain, from towns to lakes, to hills and forests.

@@midwesttrails7341 💯💯💯

Thanks for watching. Go Puppy!

Thanks for visiting!

Thanks for the sub! More to come.

It is indeed. This is a good short section too.

Been lots of rain here in Minnesota, so everything is very green.

One of the better waterfalls along the SHT.

WEST END TRAILHEAD: Hopkins Depot 9451 Excelsior Boulevard Hopkins, MN 55343 Note: Take the Minnesota River Bluffs Regional Trail WEST to 11th Avenue, then turn LEFT (south). Look for the directional arrow signs at the intersection. EAST END TRAILHEAD (this is where I start from in the video): This is at the Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Refugre - Bloomington Education and Visitor Center This is basically at the very east end of American Boulevard, a major east-west road in Bloomington. Address is 3815 American Blvd E, Bloomington, MN 55425

@@midwesttrails7341 Awesome! Thank you.

Thanks. This is a great long distance hiking trail.

Sorry for delay. There aren't any SHT campsites south of Martin Road until you get to Red River Camp just before reaching the Wisconsin Border. It will take most people three or four days to hike from Martin Road to the Wisconsin Border. So first day consider a hotel in Duluth. There may be a better (or cheaper) option than this, but I don't know of it. On day two you should be passing near Spirit Mountain Campground by Spirit Mountain Recreation Area. There is a fee to camp here. Another option if you are far enough along the trail is reserving one of the campsites in advance that are close to the SHT where it passes through Jay Cooke State Park. These are state park campsites.

Sorry for slow response. Welcome. Yeah, it's a nice trail. Fairly minimal street crossings for being so close into the core of the city.

Last spring. May 3, 2020 was record date.

You and me both!
