{1.1.24} I wanted to explore a new place for the first day of the new year. I had never heard of Durward’s Glen until this fall. My husband and I checked it out today. I thought the grounds and buildings were extremely charming. #durwardsglen #winterhike #happynewyear #charmingwisconsin #soulfood #optoutside #hikewisconsinbly #girlswhohikewi #hikingadventures #amateurphotography

Sunglasses are one of the necessary equipment that hikers often overlook. A hike may take from 3 to 8 hours during the day hours, and one is exposed to harmful UV light from the sun. This light may cause eyes to hurt after the hike. Additionally, the weather might change and winds start blowing hard, carrying debris that may harm the eyes. That is why hikers ought to always have this necessary equipment with them whenever they hit the outdoors. . . . . . #getoutside #girlswhohike #girlswhohikeor #girlswhohikesc #girlswhohikewi #goforahike #gohike #hike #hikemore #hiker #hiking #hikingadventure #hikingadventures #hikingculture #hikinglife #hikinglove #hikingtrails #hikingvibes #hikingviews #landscapephotography #lovehiking #mountaingirls #naturehike #optoutside #takeahike #travelingram #traveller #trek #trekking #womenwhohike
While venturing into the great outdoors, remember this vital tip: striking the right balance in hydration is key! Avoid the extremes of exclusively drinking water or delaying your hydration in the name of preservation. Over hydration can lead to an imbalance in vital electrolytes. On the other hand delayed hydration leads to dehydration and affects your performance. Moderation is the key! . . . . . #getoutside #girlswhohike #girlswhohikesc #girlswhohikewi #goforahike #hike #hikemore #hiker #hiking #hikingadventures #landscapephotography #mountaingirls #naturehike #naturelover #naturelovers #natureloversgallery #naturephoto #naturephotographer #natureshots #nikon #optoutside #photographylovers #sunrise #sunsetlovers #takeahike #traveltheworld #tree #wildlife #wildlifephotography #womenwhohike
Sharing your experiences not only gives voice to your own struggles, but also creates a space for others to do the same. By being open and honest about your it, you break down barriers and create connections with others who may have gone through similar challenges. Many people may feel hesitant to open up about their experiences, fearing that it will make them seem vulnerable or weak. However, it’s a sign of strength because courage, vulnerability, and a willingness to be seen is required. You have the power to inspire others and make a difference in the world, just by sharing your story. . . . . . #getoutside #girlswhohike #girlswhohikeor #girlswhohikesc #girlswhohikewi #goforahike #gohike #hike #hikemore #hiker #hikergirl #hikerlife #hiking #hikingadventures #hikingculture #hikinglife #hikingtrails #idhikethat #landscapephoto #landscapephotographer #landscapephotography #landscapes #mountain #mountaingirls #naturehike #naturelover #optoutside #takeahike #trekking #womenwhohike
Whether you're an experienced hiker or just starting out, there are a few things you can do to make your hiking experience more enjoyable and meaningful. First, take time to plan and research the area you'll be hiking in. This can help you better understand the flora and fauna you'll encounter and ensure that you're properly prepared for the terrain. Second, take the time to be present and fully immerse yourself in the experience. Take breaks to sit and appreciate the view, listen to the sounds of nature, and breathe in the fresh air. Finally, be respectful of the environment and leave no trace of your visit, so that future generations can enjoy the natural beauty that you've had the privilege of experiencing. . . . . . #getoutside #girlswhohike #girlswhohikeor #girlswhohikesc #girlswhohikewi #goforahike #hike #hikemore #hiker #hikerlife #hikerslife #hikertrash #hiking #hikingadventures #hikinginkenya #hikinglife #hikinglove #hikingtrail #hikingtrails #landscapelovers #landscapephotography #modernhiker #mountain #mountaingirls #naturehike #optoutside #socalhiker #takeahike #trekking #womenwhohike
If you're ever feeling lost or disconnected, remember the power of nature. Take a walk in the trails, watch the sunset over the ocean, or simply sit outside and listen to the sounds around you. Let nature inspire you, uplift you, and fill you with a sense of wonder and awe. Embrace its beauty, and let it guide you on your journey through life. . . . . . #getoutside #girlswhohike #girlswhohikeor #girlswhohikesc #girlswhohikewi #goforahike #gohike #hike #hikemore #hiker #hikerslife #hiking #hikingadventures #hikingculture #hikinglife #hikingtrail #hikingtrails #idhikethat #landscapelovers #landscapephoto #landscapephotography #landscapes #mountain #mountaingirls #naturehike #naturelover #optoutside #takeahike #trekking #womenwhohike
When embarking on a hike, it can be easy to become fixated on reaching the summit. But instead of solely focusing on the summit, consider shifting your attention to unlocking your inner potential during the hike. This can mean setting personal goals, such as improving your endurance or taking time to appreciate the scenery around you. It can also mean approaching the hike with a growth mindset, embracing challenges and learning from any setbacks along the way. Remember, the journey is just as important as the destination, and by focusing on unlocking your inner potential, you can make every step count. . . . . . #getoutside #girlswhohike #girlswhohikeor #girlswhohikesc #girlswhohikewi #goforahike #hike #hikemore #hiker #hiking #hikingadventures #hikingistherapy #landscapecaptures #landscapehunter #landscapelover #landscapelovers #landscapephoto #landscapephotographer #landscapephotography #landscapephotograpy #landscapephotomag #landscapes #mindfulnessmoments #mountaingirls #naturehike #naturelover #optoutside #outdoorfitness #takeahike #womenwhohike

Not only will a quick-dry top keep you comfortable and dry during your hike, but it also has the added benefit of being easy to pack and transport. It also helps prevent chafing and discomfort that can be caused by a wet shirt rubbing against your skin.

Another walk in the books with my hiking group! Havenwoods State Forest will always have a little special place in my heart as my first job in Milwaukee! At the time, it was rough. That was a really hard year for us and I didn't care for my boss. But looking back, I just remember it fondly more than anything else! As a Naturalist I got to walk those trails every day, catch frogs with kids, tend to the prairie flowers, and play with the snakes in the visitor center! Havenwoods is definitely an often overlooked gem in the heart of the Northside. #mkemycity #igmke #WisconsinStateParks #wisconsinstateforest #UrbanHiking #WomenHikingWisconsin #GirlsWhoHikeWI #hikewisconsin #milwaukee
I'm a sucker for a good tower climb and big boulders, and this park had a lot to offer me in that department! Ended up putting in about 7.5 miles here today, exploring some of the trails.

Nelsen Dewey State Park was a little secluded gem of a place! Being a Thursday afternoon, I didn't see a single person during my 3 mile meander along the cliff side park! Everywhere I've been on the Mississippi is just fabulous. There were beautiful prairie plants all along the trail with the river views and the wooded trails were a nice respite from the hot sun. Seems like a quiet campground too. Would definitely stop by here again! #WisconsinStateParks #WisconsinSummer #OutdoorWisconsin #TravelWisconsin #ExploreWisconsin #WomenHikingWisconsin #GirlsWhoHikeWI #wisconsinphotography #MidwestTravel #midwestliving #midwestisbest #midwestliving #midwestmoment #midwestexplorers #HikerChick #wanderlust #hikingadventure #Wisconsin

Day 1 of 10 Days of Joy For me, that's the Ice Age National Scenic Trail! 1,200 miles of Joy! I've taken many people out on the trail over the last couple of years and hiked with some great company! I have some very fond and sometimes silly memories of those hikes! But still, nothing beats hitting the trail solo. Loading up a pack, rocking out to tunes or contemplating a podcast on a long car ride to a new segment, and then setting my own pace out in the woods with nothing but my own thoughts and the sights and sounds of nature. Without fail, I always experience something special when I'm alone too! Usually it is a cool wildlife sighting, like a fox walking along the road, a family of turkeys crossing the trail right in front of me, or a bald eagle in a tree above me. Creatures that are usually frightened off by the sound of multiple people. Sometimes it's a brief rain shower and the most stunning rainbow. Other times it is the weirdest geocache! I cherish my solo hiking memories! I also have a bit of an obsession with photographing the yellow blazes that mark the trail and here are just a few of my favorite shots! These were all taken on solo hikes too, now that I think of it! Looking back through my IAT photo albums reminds me that I need to schedule some solo trail time yet this summer! On the Ice Age or otherwise! Such an easy and inexpensive way to spend my day off that brings me so much joy! #JoyChallenge #joyful #IceAgeTrail #IceAgeNationalScenicTrail #OnlyInWisconsin #YellowBlaze #SoloHiker #WomenHikingWisconsin #OutdoorWisconsin #ChooseJoy #HikerChick #NatureTherapy #MidwestMoment #GirlsWhoHikeWI #Wisconsin #WisconsinOutdoors

A quick stop at Tower Hill State Park yesterday while in the area (well, kind of lol)! It's small but looks like it wouls have great camping spots right off the Wisconsin River! Will have to remember that and maybe book one for myself this summer for some solo adventuring! Still pretty in winter but I think it would be magical in the fall with the view of the treetops! Plus, the inside of the shot tower is closed for the season in winter.
This year one of my hiking goals includes seeing some of my favorite trails in all 4 seasons! Saw Paradise Springs on the 1st and today I went and visited Gibraltar Rock! As I suspected, it was just as stunning in the winter, and perfect weather for it today! Can't wait to see what it looks like in the fall.
Can't think of a better way to start the New Year! ❄ One of my hiking goals this year is to intentionally explore some of my favorite spots in all four seasons. I usually end up seeing spots around the same time every year for some reason and I want to see how these places transform at different times of the year. ❄ Paradise Springs in winter did NOT disappoint! The water is super clear and blue in summer and absolutely beautiful. Not as blue now, but still looks incredible with the snow we have and the warmer water keeping the stream plants alive. I look forward to visiting again in spring, summer, and fall to see how it changes! ❄ My other location to see is a bit of a further drive. I wanna hike Gibraltar Rock over north of Dane Co in every season too! I've only hiked that in summer and early fall. I just know it'll be gorgeous! ❄ Goal Tracker: Hike 1/52 5.4 miles/250 Paradise in Winter ✔
Another trek around the sun on this beautiful blue planet with the people I love. Happy New Year and here’s to more adventures in 2022! . . . #happynewyear #wisconsinphotographer #borrowingmoments #photography #photographersofinstagram #girlswhohikewi #adventures #photographer #outsideisfree
An impromptu stop at Hartman Creek State Park to cross off my goal of hiking 6 new to me state parks in 2021 😍 This lovely gem definitely deserves another visit as I only had time to do a short 2.5 mile hike. I have several hiking related goals on my #22for2022 list and my #52NewThings challenge that I finally intend to complete this year, Covid be d*mned! A small sampling of my goals: 🥾host 24 hikes for SWBOW! 🥾hike 6 new to me State Parks! 🥾hike and photograph Gibraltar Rock in all 4 seasons this year! 🥾complete 12 new to me Ice Age Trail segments! 🥾hike 500 miles!
This year, I have decided to fall in love with winter. So brace yourselves! I'm about to inundate your feeds with snow covered everything! It's always been easy to love the first part of winter, right before Christmas. Everything is so festive 🎄🎁❄☃️ And the first snowfall is always so novel and lovely. It's February that usually gets to me. But, I'm hoping if I spend more intentional time exploring the season and embracing alllll the seasonal activities, it'll grow on me! Bring on all the hikes, the snowshoeing, cross country skiing, hot chocolate bombs, ice sculpture events, candlelight hikes, tubing, sledding, snow angel/man making, polar plunges, and whatever else I can think of!

An absolutely stunning 7 mile hike out at Loew Lake today! One of my favorite #IceAgeTrail segments and that's what I usually hike. Did 4 miles on the IAT with my hiking group, but then added 3 more miles solo! Did a little side trail exploring and found this lil abandonded rust gem in a field! I simply love solo time in the woods. I often find myself stopping to sit and enjoy a view, examine fungus on a fallen log, vearing off some deer trail, or taking forever to get some shot from some angle. Things most people walk past or stand around waiting for me to move on! Being alone in nature is my very favorite thing in this world! #IceAgeNationalScenicTrail #WomenHikingWisconsin #GirlsWhoHikeWI #NatureTherepy #OutdoorExplorer #OutdoorWisconsin #TravelWisconsin #AbandonedPlaces #KettleMoraineStateForest #KettleMoraine #MidwestMoment #FallFeels #Saturyay #WisconsinWanderer #WildChild #WanderLust

“Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.” Emily Bronte You can’t tell by these pictures, but today was a hard day. I was really excited and looking forward to this girl’s trip but my body had other plans. I don’t usually get migraines but when I do they are almost unbearable. I get dizzy, nauseous, sensitivities to light and sound, and ringing in my ears. I was able to stick it out through the morning but we couldn’t continue our lunch plans. Instead @a.wynen had to rescue me and drive me home. I so grateful for her understanding and patience with me today. Life is definitely better when you surround yourself with good people ❤️ #smilingontheoutside #girlstrip2021 #fallfoliage #migrainessuck #migrainesupport #seasonsoffriendship #wisconsinyourebeautiful #ribmountain #girlswhohikewi
