Thru Hike for PD Kickoff

We’re on our way!

We kicked off our thru hike on Tuesday August 1st, 2023- starting at the western terminus of the Ice Age National Scenic Trail in St Croix Falls.

It was a beautiful morning and we were the only ones there. We hiked for 14.6 miles until we hit the small town of Centuria.

Here are some highlights of day 1!

Day two started by waking to the sound of an eagle perched above our campsite. It had appeared at dinner on day one and made frequent stop for observation in the dead tree

We hiked 19.1 miles on day 2. It took us 8 hours. Here are the highlights from day 2:
