What a great story; my first trip to Chicago in 1954 was a depressing jolt -downtown buildings were dirty and grimy. Last summers visit there was a wonderful experience, wish i had known about this trail.

This is so cool! I've only been to Chicago once -- for an Avon Walk -- and I loved it!

I've been wanting to tell you about this post from another blogger I follow. It's about a series of parks that have been created in Seoul, South Korea. If you're ever interested in looking outside the US for urban hiking experiences, this might be a place to visit!
