Day Thirteen Ice Age Trail

Plot Twists Abound!

Sometimes I mis-type “TRIAL” instead of trail. Yes, the Ice Age Trail is also a trial at times!
It’s beautiful, adventurous and challenging — more difficult than I imagined.
One memorable highlight was reaching the top of a hill to witness coyotes playing in a field and they didn’t sense me watching them.
After hiking long distances with inclines for 3 days in a 27-lb backpack, I’ve come to realize that I must either reduce my mileage or pack weight to find that sweet spot.
I’ve also learned it wise to keep a pepper spray ready-to-go whilst on back-country crossing routes, as I was charged and/or chased by dogs on 3 occasions within the course of 2 hours. I haven’t had to use pepper spray yet and hope that remains my status quo.
After feeling some shooting pain in my feet, I decided to rest and not risk permanent injury. I was back to good and out hiking long distances after a couple of days!
Buen Camino!

Some books are discovered after they’re published.

Book One is experienced while it’s still unfolding.

Act Two is an invitation into a living work of art where stories, films, photographs, reflections, and creative discoveries come together as the manuscript continues to take shape. Every visit offers something new because the journey is still alive. You are invited to explore it now.
