Where in Duluth? PDD 15th Anniversary Challenge #12 of 15

If you’ve followed Perfect Duluth Day for long, you know how to play “Where in Duluth?” A photo from an undisclosed spot is posted, people guess the location in the comments, someone eventually gets it right and everyone else admires that person’s brilliance. But now, as part of PDD’s 15th anniversary celebration, there are prizes on the line.

Duluth’s Duluthiest website celebrates its anniversary on Friday, June 29, at Wade Stadium as the Duluth Huskies face the Thunder Bay Border Cats in Northwoods League baseball. PDD will have a canopy at the game from 6 to 9 p.m. and representatives will be on hand to pass out birthday cake and give away various prizes. There will also be a drawing with 15 names in it for three special prizes — for the “Where in Duluth?” champions.

Here’s how the “Where in Duluth?” challenge works:

  • As opposed to the usual “Where in Duluth?” posts, the contest images will feature the PDD Angry Seagull mascot in the frame.
  • As usual, the first person to guess the correct location in the comments to the post is the winner.
  • Each winner will be entered into a drawing for the three fabulous prizes.
  • The drawing will be held at Wade Stadium the night of the party. Winners need not be present to collect a prize.

Prizes: 

Loll Chair: A charcoal grey Adirondack chair from Loll Designs. Check out more from Loll Designs on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.

Daypack: A North Bay Daypack with padded laptop sleeve from Frost River. This classic pack is styled in waxed canvas. Check out more from Frost River on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.

Rafting Adventure: A 4-to-6-person excursion from Minnesota Whitewater Rafting. The winner will receive a certificate good for a 4.4-mile trip on the St. Louis River this summer in a dam-controlled area. Learn more about Minnesota Whitewater Rafting on Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.

Good luck with your “Where in Duluth?” speed and skills. See you at PDDXV!

It seems so familiar. Is this in that area where Brewery Creek exits the hillside and enters Lake Superior?

It's not at Hartley or Lincoln Park.

First hint: It's closer to Lincoln Park than Hartley.

At old (new) Central High School?

Paul Lundgren

It is not at either of the former Central High School buildings.

It is not in Enger Park, but here's a big clue: It's very near Enger Park.

Miller Creek on trails near Lake Superior College?

Paul Lundgren

Somethin2say has it ... as near as I can tell.

I haven't been there (recently anyway) but Alex, who shot the photo and is at a cabin not following along with the thread here, told me the location is "underneath the Miller Creek and Trinity Road bridge, shortly after the stoplight that leads to Lake Superior College and Arlington Avenue if you're going down to the highway."

That might actually be in Enger Park, if it's slightly east of the bridge, but if it's west of it or directly under then I was correct with my clue that it's not in Enger Park.

And I can't really remember if there is a trail there, but, well, it seems Somethin2say's answer is at least close enough if not exact.

So consider this one solved, Congratulations, Somethin2say.
