The falls of Pattison State Park
I spent most of last week in northwest Wisconsin, and one of my main goals was to see some of the waterfalls in the area. First stop: Pattison State Park.

Porcupine Mountain State Park has a series of waterfalls, created by the Presque Isle River, as it makes its way to Lake Superior.
Minnehaha Falls
When my father (Wilmer Bloy) and I were in Minneapolis last weekend, we went to Minnehaha Falls, which is in the city, along side the Mississippi River.
Hiking through Copper Falls
I also visited Copper Falls State Park while vacationing in Northern Wisconsin earlier this month.
The most scenic views of the park are along the Doughboys’ Nature Trail. Along that thick, wooded trail, you get great views of the deep gorges and park’s largest waterfalls.
Lake of the Falls
While camping last week, I took a couple of day trips to see nearby sights. One was to Lake of the Falls County Park in Iron County.
Rhododendrons and rushing water
Mountains aren’t the only things to look at in the Great Smokey Mountain National Park. Dad and I didn’t see a big variety of flowers, but in the lower elevations there seemed to be rhododendrons everywhere.
Cox Hollow Falls
I came across this scene while hiking at Governor Dodge State Park today.
Parfrey’s Glen
Yesterday I visited Parfrey’s Glen, a State Natural Area close to Devil’s Lake State Park.
North woods camping
Last week I went to my favorite place to camp in Wisconsin, the Northern Highland American Legion State Forest. For me, there is nothing like getting away from it all and camping in the north woods. There you’ve got fresh air, beautiful scenery and wildlife (like bald eagles and loons). Below is my favorite picture from this camping trip. It was taken at a lagoon along one of the best nature trails in the forest, the Star Lake Nature trail. This spot is one of my favorite scenic places in the State of Wisconsin. Can’t you just smell the fresh, pine scented air?
