Itasca State Park

Took the family to the park and hit the biking trails on Saturday. Colors were great and the trails are perfect. There are a number of hills on the trail that gave us quite a workout. My wife turned back a mile into the ride saying she wasn't in shape enough. The kids and I went on to the headwaters. I must admit to, that I'm not in shape like I thought I was! LOL

All and all, it was an awesome day to be with the family and enjoy the outdoors.

The trails are extremly busy with tons of people either biking or walking,so much so,that it was hard taking a picture on the trail without getting a stranger in the shot to.

If you have the liberty to go during the week, I think that's what I would do.

Will definatly do it again.

We probably saw you there. It was our eighth year in a row to camp on the last weekend of Sept. Tell your wife there's no shame in pushing up a hill or two. Not all bikes were designed for the trails of Itasca.

The bikers did get a bit annoying on the road around the park. One guy, in particular, kept showing up on my bumper. There was enough traffic that I couldn't leave him behind.
