Perfect Duluth Day

Old Softball Field in Midway Township

On Midway/Becks Road, about a quarter mile south of Interstate 35 and just west of the former Nopeming Sanatorium, sits a softball — or perhaps youth baseball — field that doesn’t appear to have been played on in about 40 years. These photos are from November.

I have no information on what the name of this field might have been … or really any details or anecdotes at all. Sometimes those tidbits emerge after a post like this sits for a while on the Internet.

The land is privately owned, but has a rather clever geocache on it, which suggests respectful trespassing is acceptable.

If you find yourself having an emergency, the outhouse is still standing.
