I spent the first half of last week camping in the Northern Highland State Forest. One of the best things about that area is the Heart of Vilas County Trail.

Stromy skies over Tomahawk Lake
Some storm clouds moved in over what was a pretty nice sunset on my first evening of camping in Northern Wisconsin. Sure enough, after midnight heavy rain pounded my tent for several hours.
Trout Lake sunset
The best sunset I saw while camping last week.
Another visit to the Black Lagoon
I spend last week camping in northern Wisconsin, where I made my annual summer pilgrimage to the Black Lagoon on the Star Lake Nature Trail. As I’ve said before, this is my favorite view in all of Wisconsin. The thought that entered my mind when I was there this time was, I’ll bet it looks just as amazing in the winter. Someday, I’ll have to see for myself.
Where the Wisconsin & Mississippi Rivers meet
I spent most of this week camping at Wisconsin’s Wyalusing State Park, located on the bluffs above the meeting point of the Wisconsin and Mississippi Rivers.
Hiking the Fallison Lake trail
A couple of views from the Fallison Lake nature trail, one of the nicest in the Northern Highland State Forest.
Last glimpse of the sun
I spent last week camping in Wisconsin’s Northern Highland State Forest. This was the sunset view at my campsite on Trout Lake.
Hiking the shore
I spent this past week in Door County. I really enjoyed hiking along the beach at Whitefish Dunes State Park.
The Heart of Vilas County
I took a camping vacation in Wisconsin’s north woods last week, and spent a lot of time bicycling on the trails there.
Trempealeau sunset
Just returned from a camping vacation at Perrot State Park. The park overlooks Trempealeau Mountain along the Mississippi River. This was the sunset on my first night there.
