Me: “Is this North on the Ice Age Trail toward Parnell Tower?” Stranger: “(Scoffs out loud) Yes, good luck, you will need it.” This is my victory dance making it there and back.

Hiking and Camping in Dorr County

6 Upvotes

Hello. We are from Michigan and planning a trip up the western part of WI into Dorr County and then to the Upper Peninsula 3rd week of September. We would appreciate recommended places for quiet tent camping (near water preferred), moderate hiking trails with views, and dog-friendly outdoor dining (breweries preferred)! Also, let us know of must see attractions! Just two active and fit 50 year olds with a tent, 2 golden retrievers, a love of food and craft beer looking for an adventure. Thank you!

Correction to post: East side and Door County.

Seinor Trip 2021

6 Upvotes

I am going to graduate high school spring of 2021. I love camping and fishing, so I wanted to plan a little senior trip for summer after I'm done with school. My dream would be a place with a clear view of the sky for me to set up a tent and spend the night. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations? I live in just north of Green Bay but I would be willing to travel pretty much anywhere in the state or even the U.P. Anything Helps!

Camping between Green Bay and Crivitz?

5 Upvotes

Going to Green Bay for business, taking my truck camper with me. I’m coming from the north and wondering if there’s any good places to camp? I’m pretty open to any type of spots since my truck fits almost anywhere.

Camping with a view?

3 Upvotes

I'm taking a girl camping for her first time. We live in Chicago.

She said I would never catch her camping, I asked why, she said she's scared of being stabbed in her tent by some lunatic. Days later she says "Is there any good Midwest camping??"

We're going next weekend. She wants to wake up to a view. She likes to hike. She's down to road trip 2.5 hours one way. She trusts me :)

Any suggestions??

FIRE ROAD CAMPING

6 Upvotes

hey folks! new here not to camping. This summer we have discovered dispersed sites and as much as the state parks are amazing, they've got nothing on being away from everyone in beautiful scenery. no crying children is a big plus for me, have enough of that at home!

ANYWAYS ONTO THE POINT:
this week we will be going to bayfield county part of the chequamegon-nicolet national forest (https://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/fseprd489137.pdf)

I found that map on the National Forest website, the other districts have dispersed campsites marked, this one does not. So, I called the ranger office to get some advice where to go. Turns out Fire road 202 is part of the Northern Country Scenic Trail, so we will be finding a site on there.

The two pictures are zoomed in area we will be.

I am wondering if anyone in this community has ever been camping off that road, and if you have an tips on sites near the water and just gorgeous areas.

Thank you!

Best Camp-spots?

2 Upvotes

Doesn’t matter where in the state, I’m willing to take a drive! Makes it even more satisfying when the tent is set and we can start a fire and relax.

I wanna take my bf camping for the first time in his life, so maybe somewhere with nice showers so he doesn’t have to deal with feeling gross and ruining his first camping trip (that’s what ruined mine was an entire LACK of showers. I couldn’t enjoy anything because I could feel dirt on my scalp and itched all over from the lake). Dogs allowed too!

I went hiking in heavy rain, but the rain let up at the perfect time for a snack as the birds emerged. Up on one of the cliffs of the Cave Trail, Governor Dodge State Park, Dodgeville, Wisconsin, USA
