Have you Ever Heard of The Ice Age Trail?
Wisconsin offers some wonderful hiking trails for all-season use.
Today, in my Silent Sunday post on my website, The Apples in My Orchard on WordPress, I featured photographs I took on the Timm’s Hill Trail which connects local segments of the 1,200-mile-long Ice Age Trail in Wisconsin. The Ice Age Trail follows the geographic features of the last ice age found in Wisconsin and is part of the National Scenic Trail system. Notably, the Ice Age Trail is used for silent sports such as hiking, snowshoeing, birdwatching, and cross-country skiing. Some parts of the trail also allow horseback riding. Consult the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources website for more specific trail use information.
The trail starts in the St. Croix River area in Interstate Park near the Minnesota border and twists and turns, dipping down to the Janesville area back North to the edge of Lake Michigan in Potawatomi State Park.
