Middlemoon Creekwalk – Minnehaha Creek

Middlemoon Creekwalk 2018

Yesterday evening we made the short-but-snowy trek to Lynnhurst Park to experience the 2018 Middlemoon Creekwalk, put on by Wintercraft. These great folks volunteer their time, skills, and resources to provide the community with a spectacular candle-lit evening walk down the last portion of Minnehaha Creek into Lake Harriet. They created a variety of ice globes, lanterns, and artworks that were then illuminated by candles burning from dusk and into the night.

We had the good fortune of getting to go during a snowstorm, and we wouldn't have had it any other way! Here are some photos.

Open water in the snowstorm - always a favorite.

There must have been a thousand mallards swimming around, enjoying the human visitors.

Not quite dark, but getting there!

Had to go a little early to accommodate somebody's bed-time 🙂

The lanterns hanging above the creek were among our favorites.

The lanterns IN the creek were also favorites!

The moving water was really interesting against the snowstorm and ice lanterns.
