Check out the Itasca #biological Station annual report for 2024. If you run a remote #fieldstation, staying on the radar is part of the job. And it is a place-based deal, so this should make you feel like you’re there. cbs.umn.edu/sites/cbs.um...

Mighty Mississippi at -23 F from the first road bridge on its journey. It flows north out of Itasca, and arcs east before heading south. 500 miles to Saint Paul downriver. I’ve paddled a canoe under here many times. Seen wolf tracks. Eagles. Plenty of lost flip flops too from headwaters tourists.

First post here. Timing feels right:) The current temp at Lake Itasca #minnesota at the Itasca Biological Station @umn-idim.bsky.social Thinking of MLK, Memphis, and the #MississippiRiver that flows from here to there without going through DC.
