a month agoThis is the perfect little hike to transport you to an amazing little canyon with minimal effort. In the winter, make sure you wear yaktrak or crampons and waterproof boots because you will need to cross a stream and climb icy areas but this is amazing for families due to the short distance. This will trigger a child’s sense of adventure! Follow my world adventures on instagram @paul_xplore

2 months agoBring water shoes. To go all the way to the small waterfall, which may not always be running if it's dry, you'll have to go past where the official trail ends (unless that's changed since I was last there) It's a beautiful green little river valley, largely unknown still. Very worth a trip.

3 months agoWonderful place to visit. About a 15 minute hike to see. Take your water proof shoes or boots. Well worth the time to see. This was my favorite stop on our Wisconsin trip.
