![Tyler Forks Dells Falls [Failed]](https://i0.wp.com/adammartin.space/wp-content/uploads/20190704-TylerForksFail-01.jpg?fit=1600%2C1067&ssl=1)
Attempted Tyler Forks Dells Falls but failed with a capital F. I did reach the parking area at the end of Moore Park Road but from there it kind of sputtered out. Bushwhacking looked like one heck of a chore in July’s dense brush. Temps were still around 90°F today and none of this looked … Read more
Another hidden falls in Iron County which isn’t surprising given that much of this area if covered in dense forest. Upson Falls was my next stop and is very easily accessed via the city park & campground. There’s even a small shelter for larger parties. Hiking from the shelter upstream you will find some smaller … Read more
Quick stop but a surprisingly good one at Gile Falls in the very small mining neighborhood of Gile in Montreal, Wisconsin. To be perfectly honest I’m not sure what parts of this area are private property or public (all the maps I find are in disagreement) but there are historic signs for the Penokee Iron … Read more
![Rock Cut Falls [Failed]](https://i0.wp.com/adammartin.space/wp-content/uploads/20190704-RockCutFallsFail-01.jpg?fit=1600%2C1067&ssl=1)
Intentionally failed visiting Rock Cut Falls in Hurley, Wisconsin because I was in the area & wanted to confirm via boots on the ground . Everything is posted “Private Property” and there is no longer public access. Previously you could access Rock Cut Falls & Rapids via the Iron Horse trail but this is now … Read more
Happy Independence Day! Started off with a bang attempting a falls I missed in the past…only to find out now (March 2020) that I once again missed my target. Not all is lost – I did find some very cool scenery! Willard Falls [Fail] Willard Falls is located directly upstream from Potato River Falls upper … Read more
One of the more remote waterfalls in Wisconsin can be found in Iron County at Spring Camp Falls. Forest roads will get you most of the way, but the final “Falls Road” is combination sand box, swimming pool, and rocky road only accessible by 4×4 or quads. Black flies were swarming today so I opted … Read more
Quick pit stop to visit Rice Lake Rapids (aka Rice Lake Falls) still on the Turtle River just upstream from where I was at Lake of the Falls. Parking very quickly on the shoulder to take some pictures – please be mindful this is surrounded by private land and do not trespass. Upstream view of … Read more
Plans today went sideways in a hurry. Intended to camp at Beaver Lake near Marengo but the black flies were overwhelming. Spent lots of time driving in search of campsites and ended up at Copper Falls State Park ecstatic they had one open site left. Rain would take over in the evening but I’ll save … Read more
Sleep was paused for my final night at Lost Lake Campground in Tipler, Wisconsin. Night skies were cooperative and outer space was revealing her secrets. Views from the camp beach with a beer in hand – pretty hard to beat. While the naked-eye views were spectacular, sadly my camera shots were blocked by the wispy … Read more
My second fail today at Little Bull Falls in Florence, Wisconsin was intentional but I still visited to scout for future expeditions. This one is 100% impossible unless you have whitewater paddling skills. According to the maps I can find, this small parking area is the best put-in point for a run down the Popple … Read more
