With record temperatures, it was an easy decision to head to the Ice Age Trail with our 6-month-old son, AJ. We had a wonderful time hiking in short-sleeve shirts (and working up a sweat) with incredible 70-plus weather in March!
We saw quite a bit of wildlife on this hike, including a couple deer, a snake and several groupings of ducks on the the Kewaunee River. We also heard a tremendous amount of frogs along the trail, which makes sense as there was standing water along most of the trail. There were also a bee colony at the start of the trail.
This section of the trail was flat and easy walking, following the Ahnapee State Trail. I imagine this would be a glorious hike with full fall color, but it was very nice to see the world coming awake again this spring.
The unseasonably warm weather is expected to continue through this weekend, so we're hoping for another hike this Sunday.
