Schiltz Audubon Hiking

I know I’ve been complaining about the lack of winter weather here in Wisconsin, but I must admit today was a gorgeous day.

Apparently I wasn’t the only one itching to get outside because there were quite a few other people with the same idea. Luckily the Schlitz Audubon Center is a pretty big place with lots of hiking trails. It was a little muddy, but great to be out hiking through the woods and along the shore of Lake Michigan.
