Trail Challenge Resources
Trail Challenge Resources Hiking Trails Ice Age National Scenic Trail ● Description: One of only 11 National Scenic Trails in the country, the Ice Age Trail is a 1,000-mile footpath contained entirely within the state of Wisconsin. Ancient glaciers carved the path through rocky terrain, open prairies, and peaceful forests. Now, day hikers, backpackers, and outdoor lovers of all ages rely on the Ice Age Trail for a place to unplug, relax, and enjoy nature. ● Ice Age Trail Map Interstate State Park, MN ● Description: Interstate State Park includes 293 acres of diverse plant and wildlife habitat. Established in 1895, it protects a unique landscape and globally-significant geology along the St. Croix River. A billion years ago, dark basalt rock formed here when lava escaped from a crack in the earth’s crust. Just ten thousand years ago, water from melting glaciers carved the river valley. Within that water were fast moving whirlpools of swirling sand and water that wore deep holes into the rock. Today, we call these holes glacial potholes and you can see more than 400 examples of them at the park. ● Interstate State Park Map Interstate State Park, WI ● Description: There are more than nine miles of hiking trails in the park that offer the walker many opportunities for viewing the spectacular scenery and natural attributes of the park. Guided hikes are offered during the summer months. Pets must be on a leash 8 feet or shorter at all times. Hiking trails vary in difficulty. Not all trails are surfaced; use caution on steep bluffs and near cliffs. -

2015 Annual Report
Boulders saved at Banning State Park along the Kettle River 2015 Annual Report 1 Willard Munger State Trail ~ near the connection into Jay Cooke State Our Mission To acquire, protect and enhance critical land for the public’s use and benefit. Our Vision We envision an interconnected system of parks, trails, waterways, natural areas and open spaces that provide all Minnesotans with outstanding outdoor recreational opportunities and that preserve the natural diversity of our state. Cover photos left to right from top: Kettle River in Banning State Park; Advocates for the Shooting Star State Trail at our 2015 Day on the Hill; Reuel Harmon Award at our 2015 Annual Dinner; Riders from our 2015 Bike Minnesota event at Inspiration Peak State Wayside and along the Central Lakes State Trail; Magney Circle members at the proposed Minnesota Valley State Trail. 2 Michael Tegeder, President Brett Feldman, Executive Director Banning State Park ~ wolf creek (photo by Gary Alan Nelson) Dear Friends Working together to achieve our mission Putting the finishing touches on our Annual Report before it goes to press is always a fun time of year. It's an opportunity to bundle up our efforts and accomplishments into a tidy package that we can reflect upon. It's like a time capsule that years from now we can look back on to see how far we've come. In fact, we recently dusted off our annual report from 20 years ago for this very reason. At that time we were celebrating a boost in membership to 880 members. Today those numbers have increased four-fold to 3,700 members and our budget tells the same story. -

Trails along or near the Minnesota St. Croix Scenic Byway Swedish Immigrant Trail Abandoned Railroad corridor along Highway proposed trail from Wyoming to Taylors Falls. The goal of the Swedish Immigrant Trail Project is to build and maintain a 20-mile, multi- use, hard surface trail that provides a safe route for recreation and alternative transportation, while interpreting and celebrating the Swedish immigrant history of Chisago County. http://www.traillink.com/project/swedish-immigrant-trail.aspx Sunrise Prairie Trail The Sunrise Prairie Trail runs north–south atop an abandoned right-of-way along a Burlington Northern Rail corridor, traversing residential neighborhoods in Forest Lake and North Branch, southern and northern terminus, respectively, with mostly farmland in the middle. The trail also runs through hardwood forests and crosses several wetland areas. Wildlife is abundant, and you may see grouse, whitetail deer, wild turkey and waterfowl, as well as native prairie and wildflowers. http://www.traillink.com/trail/sunrise-prairie-trail.aspx Hardwood Creek Trails The Hardwood Creek Regional Trail is actually two parallel trails running along US 61 in rural Washington County, Minnesota. The paved trail is open for biking, walking, running and inline skating, while the adjacent grass trail is for equestrian use in the summer and snowmobile use in the winter.
