Blue Hills Trail |
| The Blue
Hills Trail of northern Wisconsin's Rusk County
began as an eleven-mile complex of loops nestled
within a rolling deciduous forest cut by small
streams and sprinkled with red and white pines,
balsam, and hemlock. It has since been expanded to
a 20-mile system that is considered one of the
most scenic cross-country ski trails in the
Midwest. The trail's many loops and intersections
allow skiers to make their outings as long and
challenging or as short and easy as desired. |
