So it looks like there is serious interest in running this route when the weather warms up. I have been researching the route and camping options along the way as to be prepared as possible. For those that are not familiar with the route, it is 50/50 paved and gravel/sand roads. There are plenty of things to see along with way which I planned on doing (waterfalls, lookout towers, Delta Dinner). I have thrown around a couple of options as far as getting going on the trail.

Option 1#:
18th: Leave Chicago drive to Wildcat Campground (State Park requires sticker) or Leone Valley. This will be a full day in the trucks.
19th: Rally to Chequamegon--Nicolet National Forest plenty of camping options
20th: Hit up the Delta Dinner and finish the route at Detour Park campground
21st: Take in the views of Lake Superior and explore / head back to Chicago


Option 2#:
17th: Leave Chicago and camp at Palace Campground in Galena
18th: Run to Wildcat Campground or Leone Valley
19th: Rally to Chequamego --Nicolet National Forest plenty of camping options
20th: Hit up the Delta Dinner and finish the route at Detour Park campground
21st: Take in the views of Lake Superior and explore / head back to Chicago

Lets make this happen!!

Wish I could join. Spring is always busy with Track meets for my kids. This is the weekend of the state meet.

This is tempting. I'm leaving the next weekend for two weeks out west though. May be hard to swing it that close to then. Hmmmmm.

I am interested in this, but between my son's soccer, and baseball games this weekend will not work. I would be interested if there are later dates planned.
