Wrapping up my day trip I headed to…a lake to find a waterfall? Doesn’t sound right but in the remote town of Marion, Wisconsin is where you can find Keller Lake Falls. Access is extremely easy by driving right up to a small bridge on the Keller Lake Park road and parking the car. The … Read more
Spring was turning to summer and the COVID-19 pandemic was in full swing. Decided to make my way into the woods and away from people…or so I thought? Parking lot at Gilmer Falls was nearly full, tons of people taking advantage of the good weather and swimming & picnicking at the river today. Not surprising … Read more
Thanks to my friend Bob over at waterfallswisconsin.com I was made aware of a fairly large waterfall at High Cliff State Park in Sherwood, Wisconsin. He is referring to this as Lime Kiln Falls upper & lower because the main access is directly off the Lime Kiln Trail. I’ve been here before but never even … Read more
Ironically the terrible rainy weather created perfect conditions to visit an ephemeral waterfall called December Falls (sometimes referred to as Roznos Falls). I visited on both Saturday & Sunday and as you can see 1 inch of rain makes a big difference. To find the falls, hike north on the Ice Age Trail / East … Read more
The weather has changed for the better and this afternoon is blue skies with only partial clouds and some great sunshine. With the lack of available daylight hours I’m wasting no time. Drove out to the Eagle Panorama for a hike on the Eagle Trail. Not surprisingly views in cheerful conditions are better than what … Read more

Waves from Green Bay decided that I’m not allowed to fully walk out on the point so I headed inland hoping the trees would give a bit … Read more
Just enough time for one last waterfall before sundown so I made a quick visit to Hamilton Falls in the tiny town of Wilson, Wisconsin. Access is very easy by following the signs towards Memorial Park on Hamilton Fall Road. Once you reach the metal gate at Eaton road keep going until the 3rd pull-out … Read more
Back on the hunt for waterfalls at Rock Dam County Park & Campground near the remote small town of Willard, Wisconsin. According to my notes this should be accessible through the campground. Nobody was available that day so I went around to Rock Cut Dam first to check for public access. Some excellent views of … Read more
More intermittent rain today but not enough precipitation to stop my plans. Next up was some hiking at Kinnikinnic State Park in River Falls, Wisconsin. To be honest I didn’t know much about this park before visiting but afterwards it’s easy to see why it’s a special place. From the far west parking area I … Read more
Bit of a late start this morning (had to move campsites, was the only way I could get a last minute reservation) but sometime around 10am I was on the trail. Agenda for the morning was to hike Bay View and Point Trails looping back to the campground. I started from camp towards the Bay … Read more
