Event
The Glades of the Wisconsin River and Louis' Bluff -- a Paddling and Hiking Excursion
We'll start and end the excursion at Frank and Mariana's riverside retreat north of Wisconsin Dells, where Louis' Bluff, the highest point on the Upper Wisconsin River, is found. Frank and Mariana protected the bluff forever through a conservation easement with the Natural Heritage Land Trust.
We'll paddle first, heading upriver (in fairly easy current) along the shore of the main channel, then turn around and head downstream through what locals call "the glades," the watery wooded area along the river's western shore that makes for fascinating paddling. This is Mariana's "daily bread" outing, and she's happy to share it with us.
Returning the Weinhold home, we'll then hike to the top of Louis' Bluff. Along the way, Frank will offer his incredible knowledge of the cultural and geolgic history of this magnificent land form. And the view from the top is breath-taking.
