Hiking Kettle Moraine Forest
today we went for a hike in the Kettle Moraine Forest, Southern Unit
it was going really well
we met a little yellow butterfly
and she sat on Zoe’s finger
then we let Maisy lead the way
we hiked for 20 minutes before we realized that we were no longer on the right set of trails
and we had to turn around and go back
Zoe wasn’t too excited about that
but at least I got to take a picture of this arc shaped tree
but our 3 mile hike turned into more than we had time for
it was 12:45 p.m. and my husband had to be to work at 1:45 p.m.
and we didn’t even know where the car was
but this tree was pretty cool
1 hour and 57 minutes after we started, we finally got back to the car
It’s a good thing I took so many pictures
I don’t think we’ll be hiking through the Kettle Moraine Forest in Eagle, WI again
Next time head northward. The Northern Kettle Moraine unit is beautiful and offers several beautiful lakes.
Just west of Dundee on Hy 67 You will find the Ice Age Center. It is a very educational experience with a beautiful vista and a 30 minute film explaining the how the kettles are formed.
The Long Lake Recreational Area offers a sandy beach, campsites and refreshments.
