Daugava Field Notes

Season log

The same path is never the same.

Spring

Fast weather and bright water. Expect soft ground away from paved sections and a colder wind than the city streets suggest.

Summer

Long usable evenings. The quietest hour begins late, when warm façades hold the last light after the river turns grey.

Autumn & winter

Fewer people, sharper sound and better views through bare branches. Ice near steps and ramps deserves more attention than distance.
