Background
When rising temperatures closed the curtains on the Ice Age 10,000 years ago, the receding glaciers sculpted many of the landscapes we cherish today. In Wisconsin, that glacial imprint is most visible along the Ice Age National Scenic Trail.
The Ice Age Trail winds along Black Earth Creek — one of the top 100 trout streams in the country. Along the Trail you'll find threatened and endangered species like the pine martin, timber wolf, trumpeter swan and Karner blue butterfly. The trail connects units of the Kettle Moraine State Forest and Chequamegon National Forest.
