Quality Habitat Unmatched Anywhere in Douglas County. Includes open and wooded ridges, densely wooded river bottom along both sides of Ox Creek, and numerous food plots, clearings, trails, and undisturbed refuges and bedding areas. Laboriously improved, meticulously maintained, and carefully managed since 1987. During those years, only the owner and one to three members of his immediate family have hunted here; theyve taken several trophy deer and large bear on the property. Numerous stands and multiple access points mean youll always be able to approach your stand from downwind. Includes a mobile home to serve as your hunting HQ. Also features multiple building sites with sweeping, panoramic views of the Ox Creek and St Croix River valleys. A Natural Funnel and a Natural Haven for Wildlife The property lies along either side of Ox Creek, not far from where it meets the St Croix River. These two river valleys form a natural travel route for wildlife—especially for deer, bear, and bobcat. (Grouse, wild turkey, and many other types of wildlife are also present on the property.) As wildlife travels either direction, the terrain naturally funnels it toward this property. Once wildlife arrives, its likely to remain. Water, dense cover, winter browse, and abundant hard and soft mast make this a wildlife haven. The property includes large amounts of white oak, hazel, blueberries, blackberries, and cherries. Alluvial river bottom soils are vastly different from the sand or clay <b>...</b>

If you're driving through the "Wisconsin's waterfall capital", Marinette County, you need to stop at Dave's Falls. A small roadside county park in Amberg, WI. It's a short walk from the parking lot, so it's an easy hike. The falls are basically a narrow rapid that flows between two rock faces. If I get back in the area, I plan on re-visiting the falls along with the many others in the area. Be prepared to drive on aa lot of dirt roads.

In Marinette County, in Goodman Park is Strong Falls. This was the last set of falls I visited on my 3 day trip. I was tired and still had a long drive ahead of me. My level of concentration was quite low and I really didn't get many great images or video from the visit, but I still wanted to make something of the visit.
