Scenes from the north woods

,

A lake pier leads to a hiking trail on the shore. A tall pine tree leans over the trail with other pine trees in the background.

Some photos from my camping vacation in Northern Wisconsin last week. Pity I can’t include a sample of that wonderful aroma of pine from these scenes.

A calm lake with a few large rocks showing above the shallow water. Pine trees line the opposite shore under a partly cloudy sky, which are both reflected in the smooth lake.

A boardwalk through a green marsh surrounded by pine trees.

All of these pictures are from various locations in the Northern Highland American Legion State Forest. One of the most beautiful areas of Wisconsin.

A pine tree lined peninsula juts out into the middle of a lake under mostly cloudy skies.

Hiking trail in the middle of a pine forest. A lake can be seen through the trees on the side of the photo.

No lakeside campsites were available this time, but I did get a decent site in the forest.
