Geocache Description:


Plenty of nice parking near the large shelter. And, there's a nice trail through the woods to get to GZ - best taking that, as it also will get you off the access road that goes in to the picnic area.

In the spring, this area can look a bit like a prehistoric pterodactyl haven, as many blue herons come in to roost for the summer. If you get a chance to see this, it's very cool. Cache is about regular size, and probably accessible most time of the year. A daily or annual pass is required for all WI state parks.

Have fun!
