On Friday we made the 2 hour drive to Jay Cooke State Park, just south of Duluth, thinking that it would be less busy on a weekday than the weekend with leaf-peeping still going strong.
The parking lot was full! It was crazy. Can't imagine what the weekend crowd looked like!
The narrow swing bridge was packed with people going both ways... and people stopping to take photos. I grabbed one on the way. The St. Louis River was as low as we've ever seen it.
