Hidden Beach (East Cedar Beach), Minneapolis MN


Photos: plh
Known as "Hidden Beach" at the time of the 1984 New Day Rising photo shoot, this spot on Cedar lake has since been officially adopted by the Minneapolis Parks & Recreation Board and is known as East Cedar Beach. When the newer shots were taken in Aug 2011, 27 years of growth had altered the treeline somewhat, but it looks as if the section off toward the right in the panorama is the closest match to the NDR artwork. No dogs were present that day, and the sun was too high to emulate the sunrise effect (actually shot at sundown), but Grant Hart guaranteed that this was the exact spot.
