Dans Big Adventure - Northwoods loop - Fall 2020 Northwoods Day 14 - Marion Park, Glidden WI to Hayward,WI October 11, 2020 Northwoods Day 14 - Marion Park, Glidden WI to Hayward,WI Sunday Oct 11, 2020 Miles 59.5 Total time 5:45 Ride time 5:11 Today is a day of change.  Cloudy overcast skies greet me in my sheltered camp spot, then it cleared and was sunny, then the clouds moved in midafternoon, a harbinger of shift in the weather. This weather change will change my plans as well. I was planning on starting my dirt backcountry route today, with 4 -5 days of dirt roads and trails between here and Superior. But with 2 heavy rain storms followed by cold days for another week+, dirt doesn't sound to enticing after a couple of storms. Snow flakes predicted Thursday right where my dirt route is headed! So I am going to use this last nice day to divert to close the loop and get back to my truck in a couple of days of riding. I will explore the northwood ...

Northwoods Wrap

After closing my loop, I spent a week truck camping. Did some trail riding, and exploring the south shore of Lake Superior in Wisconsin and the UP. Lots of waterfalls, picturesque cliffs, trails, and snow! ok, met some kayakers(Brian and Joerg) truck camping like me. We got on just fine, and shared a campfire and dirt bag camping in the cold and snow! They ran Black River with the falls pictured above the next day, when it was snowing! Makes my bike riding look like a poseur! highest point in WI ...

 Northwoods Day 3 Marion park in Glidden to Mercer,WI, Loon Lagoon Resort Sept 26, 2020   41.4 miles Ride time: 3:57 Total time about 5 hours Morning breaks, light suffuses from all around; my consciousness is awakened to just one sound - drip, drip, drip;  I am camping under a colorful maple, and it is either lightly raining, or the maple is making it last. I finally decide it is the maple playing tricks on my poor mountain oriented mind, and peak my head out. A fine fog greets me, yet the pavement is not wet. I drag all of my gear to the pavilion and pack, cook breakfast while I attempt in vain to dry my tent fly. I snap a few more shots of the unique Marion Park and leave about 10.  The fog has lifted and reveal a steel grey sky. There is a 50% chance of rain today, so I am going to do a modest length day hoping to avoid the highest chances in the kate afternoon and evening. First 10 miles ar...
