I’ve recorded numerous waterfalls across Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula—and I can’t wait to explore even more. Here’s a stylized take on one I captured at Willow River State Park. #widnr #travelwi #discoverwi #waterfalls #photoart #midwestmoment #sonyalpha
An overgrown area in the woods
The same area but now with a path!
Trailbuilding in Langlade County with the Ice Age Trail Alliance. Learned a great deal about the process, was introduced to some tools and terms, as well as some good people. #iceagetrail #trailbuilding #wisconsin #wisconsinstateparks #widnr #nps
A coffee pot sitting over a camp fire
Grades are in, getting an early start to the weekend camping in Potawatomi. Rained all night but no mud this morning. Covered some wood before the rain started, foresight rewarded with morning fire. #widnr #dcwi #doorcounty #wisconsin

A single trillium by the side of a trail, surrounded by woods
Was beginning to worry I'd miss the trilliums but Potawatomi always provides. #widnr #wistateparks #dcwi #doorcounty #wisconsin #trailrunning

A rocky trail along the bay
All quiet on the Ice Age Trail but the lone motorboat is a harbinger of tourists to come #iat #widnr #dcwi
#Solarenergy project unfortunately colliding with #greaterprairiechicken habitat. #WisconsinWidlifeFederation and #WIDNR say this is encroaching on their leks in the #BuenaVistaWildlifeArea and could possibly lead to their extirpation and extinction. #Wisconsin

Had been planning an article on trail building efforts out by Antigo, WI - status now uncertain.

Trailrun on the Old Baldy trail, Whitefish Dunes State Park. At twelve degrees, the lake air saturates to the bone, finding breath a bit more labored. Rewarded by an encrusted shoreline peppered with shards of sunlight. #lakemichigan #doorcounty #trailrun #pixel7pro #widnr #wi #wistateparks
A segment of the Ice Age trail alongside a squat escarpment amidst the evergreens
A limestone staircase cuts up through the evergreens
Couple more from the Ice Age Trail over the weekend; learned that lithium ion batteries don't work well when it's this cold. #pixel7pro #trailrun #iceagetrail #iat #dcwi #widnr #potawatomistatepark #doorcounty
Segment of Ice Age Trail along Sturgeon Bay
Segment of the Ice Age Trail winding through the woods
Trail run through Potawatomi; sure there are other trails but the various segments all offer something new. Today was all about the silence...outside of the Fincantieri horn, it was nothing but wind through the evergreens. #iceagetrail #doorcounty #wisconsin #dcwi #widnr #wistateparks
Last trail run of 2024, Potawatomi State Park, Wisconsin. A small stretch of the Niagara Escarpment.

A snowy road the bends between a granite escarpment lined in red pines and the bay of Sturgeon Bay; looks cold!
At Potawatomi State Park, Wisconsin, US. First winter run of the season; the wind breathing through the red pines in harmony with the churning shore of Sturgeon Bay. Will hit the trails once I find my longer socks...

Wisconsin State Park stickers are moving to 12-month passes (away from a calendar year system). Does anyone have an opinion on this? Will it be a big improvement?
