Ice Age Trail Eastern Terminus in Potawatomi State Park: From Sturgeon Bay take STH-57/42 southwest to CTH-PD (Park Dr.). Turn right and go north 2.4 mi to Potawatomi State Park (PSP). Follow the park’s entrance drive (N. Norway Rd.) 3.5 mi to the Ice Age Trail eastern terminus at the observation tower. Short-term parking for tower access only. For day-hiking and overnight parking, park at the Ice Age Trail long-term parking area at the old ski hill (DK2), located 3.3 mi from the main entrance. An un-blazed spur trail leads from the parking area to the Ice Age Trail at the observation tower. Additional Parking: (i) S. Neenah Ave. Ahnapee/Ice Age Trail access parking area (DK6). (ii) Cherry Blossom Park. (iii) Bayview Park. (iv) Otumba Park. (v) Duluth Ave. Roadside parking. (vi) PSP parking areas along Shoreline Road. THE HIKE From its starting point on CTH-H in Maplewood, the segment heads north- east on its way to Sturgeon Bay, sharing the route with the Ahnapee State Trail, Ia wide, hardpacked limestone multiuse recreational trail that was formerly the rail bed of the Ahnapee & Western Railway. The route quickly traverses the southern extent of the Maplewood Swamp (DK7), a unique peat swamp where waterlogged soil prevents dead vegetation from fully decomposing, creating a spongy layer of peat. As it continues northeast, the segment passes Stoney Creek Swamp and crosses the creek itself. Dark swamp water creeps within a foot of the raised trail bed as it cuts through these swamps. From here, the segment bends gently through forests, orchards and farmland, sometimes under the cover of overhanging trees and sometimes in openings. Shortly after crossing Neenah Avenue, the segment arrives at a trailhead for the Ahnapee State Trail (DK6). From the trailhead area the segment heads north along Neenah Avenue for 0.7 miles. The segment departs Neenah Avenue and heads west and north on a path that skirts and weaves through an industrial- ized area between Neenah Avenue and Lansing Road, eventually arriving at Yew Street. The route follows Yew Street west briefly, then Lansing Road north briefly, before heading west off-road and following the southern perimeter of Cherry Blossom Park, a grassy neighborhood park. The Trail continues beyond the park and through the adjoining neighborhood to South Hudson Avenue, where it turns north. After crossing West Walnut Drive, South Hudson Avenue becomes South Hudson Court. From South Hudson Court, the segment follows a path under STH-42/STH-57 to Green Bay Road, where it then heads east through a com- mercial area. On the southwest corner of the Green Bay Road and Lansing Road intersection the segment arrives at an Ahnapee State Trail/Ice Age Trail access area (DK5) marked with an Ice Age Trail sign and a brown-and-white Ahnapee Trail sign. This is where the City Trail Extension of the Ahnapee State Trail ends. From here, hikers may wish to take an interesting side trip to the Cardy Paleo- Indian Camp archaeological site (see Points of Interest, below). From the Green Bay Road and Lansing Road intersection hikers should cross to the north side of Green Bay Road and continue east. The road curves north and 364 Ice Age Trail Guidebook 2020 – 2022 Edition becomes Madison Avenue.

    Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015) IMPLEMENTATION: Priority Conservation Actions & Conservation Opportunity Areas Prepared by: Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources with Assistance from Conservation Partners, June 30th, 2008 06/19/2008 page 2 of 93 Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan (2005-2015) IMPLEMENTATION: Priority Conservation Actions & Conservation Opportunity Areas Acknowledgments Wisconsin’s Wildlife Action Plan is a roadmap of conservation actions needed to ensure our wildlife and natural communities will be with us in the future. The original plan provides an immense volume of data useful to help guide conservation decisions. All of the individuals acknowledged for their work compiling the plan have a continuous appreciation from the state of Wisconsin for their commitment to SGCN. Implementing the conservation actions is a priority for the state of Wisconsin. To put forward a strategy for implementation, there was a need to develop a process for priority decision-making, narrowing the list of actions to a more manageable number, and identifying opportunity areas to best apply conservation actions. A subset of the Department’s ecologists and conservation scientists were assigned the task of developing the implementation strategy. Their dedicated commitment and tireless efforts for wildlife species and natural community conservation led this document.

    WISCONSIN’S NATIONAL TREASURES Exploring Lesser-Known Recreational Areas Travelers looking to visit Wisconsin for its natural beauty will find plenty to do in some of the state’s best and lesser known recreational areas. Peacefulness and simplicity await hikers, bikers, paddlers, and adventure seekers at many Wisconsin National Parks, National Forest Service areas and other federally designated spots. For those looking to take a carefree road trip, Wisconsin scenic byways offer spectacular views. While other state parks across the country are overcrowded with visitors year round, these lesser-known Wisconsin destinations offer authentic and memorable experiences, with plenty of space for yourself, or your family. Great Wisconsin Birding & Nature Trail The Great Wisconsin Birding and Nature Trail (608/266-7012; www.wisconsinbirds.org/trail) is a mapped trail that reaches into every area of the state. Five main sites make up the trail, each in a different region of Wisconsin.

    WI Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Facility Energy Efficiency Plan Strategic Direction January 2010 I. Overview II. Performance Standard Goals and Relative Strategies Specific to Executive Order 145 III. Performance Measurement Metrics IV. Future Sustainable and Energy Savings Capital Development Projects V. Recent Successes and Accomplishments Department of Natural Resources PUB-LF-053 (2010) I. Overview The State of Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (hereinafter “the Department” and “the DNR”) has substantial property holdings, including approximately 3,000 buildings and facilities in its inventory. However, unlike most other state agencies, much of DNR’s space and many of its facilities are not administrative buildings – in fact, a vast majority of buildings are very low to non- energy users like storage facilities, pavilions, vault toilets, etc. The Department provides three levels of administration in the field: regional headquarters, service centers, and worksites. All of these facilities and the associated infrastructure are assets for the Department and they must be maintained, renovated, and improved to assure they are in their best working condition, as per the Department of Administration (DOA) administrative rule and the associated Wisconsin State Statutes. As the costs of heating, cooling, and electricity continue to rise, the Department must seek effective ways to control and reduce its energy use. A formal energy plan will help the Department establish and achieve these goals. This Facilities Energy Efficiency Plan (hereinafter “Plan”) is only a part of a larger effort by the Department to lessen its overall carbon footprint, promote a cleaner environment, improve its operational efficiency, assess and reduce the level of greenhouse gas emissions, conserve and protect both ground and surface waters and provide a visible demonstration of social responsibility.
