In the almost unknown "Goat Hill" neighborhood between Downtown and the West End (Lincoln Park). A rather ruralesque transition between the two densely-populated areas.

Well, not all of MN looks like Duluth. Duluth is actually an anomaly...most of Minnesota is either farmland (think the interminable corn fields of Iowa, although soy, sugar beets, and dairy are also products of MN), or in the north, pine forest. It's only really in specific areas do you get that combination of deciduous trees and topography.

WOw....awesome! I love these photos even more than the first set you posted. You really show off the hilly terrain that is Duluth. I've had to climb up some of those roads on a winter's day in my old car hoping and praying that I'd make it.

If you can, show more of Enger Park, Park Point, Seven Bridges, Chester Bowl and other neighborhoods. Duluth has incredible neighborhoods for a city its size.
