Chippewa Moraine. (5.2 miles)
My hiking buddy Cheryl visited for the Ice Age Trail annual meeting. Since the weather was so nice we took a hike to complete the Chippewa Moraine Segment. Sunny 50 degree weather was perfect.
We saw quite a few folks on our hike even some backpackers. The clouds reflected in the lakes along the way were lovely. And lots of hepatica blooming. Spring is here.
We were walking a little slowly and there was a lot of signage judging going on. Too many up arrows and over blazing with paint squares was getting on Cheryl's nerves. I thought it was just temporary reroute around the bridge underwater. So I walked ahead a little faster so I wouldn't end up leaving some miles orphaned.
When I got back to Cheryl we turned back and found a place to sit and eat chocolate and oranges. Very lovely view.
The drive home was a little tense as I felt a tick crawling on my leg. Lovely weather brings out the ticks.
Stats for the trip: Roundtrip miles to get to trail: 122
