Geocache Description:

The McMiller Ski trails are some of the hilliest ski trails around and offer the opportunity to view many glacial features.  What do you need to power up these hills?  COOKIES!


This series is placed along the McMiller Ski Trails within the Southern Unit of the Kettle Moraine Forest.  Please follow all posted rules & regulations including NO HIKING in winter when the trails are groomed for XC skiing.  Also on the property is a shooting range which you will likely hear if you're there during range hours.

Snickerdoodle cookies are one I often see in bakeries as a choice, or when flipping through recipe books, though I've never actually ventured to make them myself.  With slight variation to a sugar cookie, these add cinnamon, and make for a light crispy treat!  You are looking for a regular size camo container off the blue loop.   

These trails are minimally maintained in the summer months which means grass on the trail may not be mowed. Here is a map I created based on my GPS tracks and the McMiller ski trail map. Note there are three potential parking areas. Daily or annual parking pass is required for a fee. Refer to the geocache Chocolate Chip Cookie for these parking waypoints. If accessing from Forest Headquarters, follow the Ice Age Shelter 2 sign and continue hiking past the shelter until you are within a few hundred feet of Pecan Finger Cookie. At that point, look for a footpath on your left (pink on map) to get onto the McMiller Trail system.
