First stop on the morning of the 26th was another coin-flip chance at a waterfall located at Lake Redstone in LaValle, Wisconsin. Absolutely zero people were here on arrival around 8am and the lake was mirror still. A large flat mound that looks like a dam / man-made feature? Hmm thats strange, I was told … Read more
After failing to see the falls from our earlier hike I wasn’t going to be defeated. Today was perfect weather for a boat ride so we hopped on the Dells Boat Tour for a 2 hour trip. Cliff views here in the Dells of the Wisconsin River are pretty amazing. Lots of rare features that … Read more
Next stop was a 50/50 chance at seeing some amazing waterfalls and a rocky gorge at Pewits Nest State Natural Area. The trail here is composed of crushed gravel and seems very new. It also appears the wooden fences are very new. First we tried to access on the path to the right of this … Read more

Forest service roads are the only access. While they look muddy & dangerous, the base is actually made of crushed granite and … Read more
