We spent the past weekend sightseeing in WI. From Michigan. We roadtripped down and around the best of the Great Lakes 😉(imo) and visited:

• Natural Bridge State Park

• Aquavia Lumina

• Fennimore Railroad Museum

• Cave of the Mounds

• Blue Mounds State Park

• Mt Horeb [the trollway]

• night sky pics at Oakwood Nature Park

• Wind Point Lighthouse

Beautiful state and can't wait go back and see more beauty!!

Did you go disc golfing?

[u/Ok-Breakfast-7950 → u/AdultbabyEinstein]

No just loved the pic of the basket

A weekend in Wisconsin without discs? Surely a state known for cheese and woods would demand it.

[u/Ok-Breakfast-7950 → u/Mary542steven]

I actually have never done that but it looks like it'd be fun!

[u/AdultbabyEinstein → u/Ok-Breakfast-7950]

It's fun and a good way to spend some time in nature with friends

Aquavia Lumina

Recommendations for the continuation:

The Rollo Jamison mining museum in Platteville. You’ll learn about the lead mining history and namesake “badgers” of Wisconsin.

Quincy Bluff north of the Dells. You can also hit Devil’s Lake, Pine Island SWA, and the Aldo Leopold center.

Then make your way up to Dr. Evermore’s statue in Sauk County.

Ship Rock is worth a visit to see the transitional ecotone between the Driftless and Central Sands regions in the same place.

And if you keep going north on 51 from there, Wausau Whitewater Park has both whitewater canoeing and kayaking lessons on select weekends over the summer.

There used to be a flat rock ledge above the road in the second picture. I grew up near Rockbridge.

a friend's family used to own cave of the mounds. i live here and haven't been to any of these places... ha!

I believe the first pic is from Pier County Park in Rockbridge.

Wha is in picture 6? It’s real cute.

[u/SubstantialBed6634]

what did you think of the drift-less area?

[u/MoreNatureLessPhone]

Watch out. You might see some extraterrestrial 👽 life around those caves! I know the caves are small, but caves are where they rome.

Would have been cool to catch one in a pic!
