Life can be overwhelming.
Never ending emails. Getting stuck in rush hour traffic. Ping! There goes your phone notifications. Waiting on hold for eternity to talk to customer service about a surprise bill. Ding! Dinner is ready but—buzz!—the laundry is dry too. Sometimes, don’t we just want to put our life on “airplane mode” and catch
our breath on the Superior Hiking Trail?
When we’re overloaded, stressed, or worried about things we can’t control, getting underneath the towering canopy of trees with the micro‐world of mushrooms at our feet allows us to just…breathe.
Something magical happens on the Superior Hiking Trail, time slows down. Our bodies and brains start moving at a pace much more familiar to us, because we aren’t just in nature, we are nature.
If you breathe deeper on the Trail, please give today.
Every donor who makes a $100+ donation or higher will receive the beautiful Breathe sticker featured below by our 2025 SHTA Artist of the Year Anni Friesen. The Duluth artist’s work is inspired by her time on the SHT.
