Off. The. Lake</span>. Layers are good, and if you plan on taking a stroll down the Lakewalk, be sure to come prepared for that chilly wind that can come along with no notice. Walking along Lake Superior is always a thrilling experience and we strongly recommend you do, but it is best enjoyed when dressed appropriately. It's probably a good idea to bring a hat and gloves, even if you may not need them.MLAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02020229713325141949noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2138056199448566718.post-13795974954258218262016-09-26T00:22:00.000-05:002016-09-26T00:22:09.289-05:00Ventriloquist Show The Zeitgeist Arts Theater will be featuring ventriloquist Todd Oliver and his dog Irving September 30th at 7:30 pm.

<br />
Duluth lists 80 parks alone; some of the best include the Rose Garden if you wish to see breathtaking floral beauty, Brighton Beach if you wish to get close to Lake Superior, Hawk Ridge if you wish to see migrating birds, or Congdon Park if you wish to hike along Tischer Creek (which enters Lake Superior at Glensheen Mansion).<br />
<br />

<br />
As far as state parks, there are 8 of them north of Duluth along Highway 61 to the Canadian border. They have spectacular hikes and views of waterfalls, Split Rock lighthouse, and of course Lake Superior.<br />
