Copper Falls State Park

By Uncle Hans

Our friends Don and Carol invited us to go camping in northern Wisconsin in April.


Really. They are friends.


Our destination was Copper Falls State Park. I didn't even know it was there. It is about 15 miles south of Lake Superior. And it is a hidden gem..............when the weather is warm.
It was a good way to check out how well the "Love Shack" works. Sort of a winter shakedown cruise.

....we found it works pretty well, but you have to have the right company to make it warm inside if it is cold outside.........

.....Carol enjoys cooking, which works well because she is good at it ( For example, I like cooking, too, but I suck at it). She whipped up a gourmet breakfast on a cold morning.....

......We went for a hike on a cool trail that was built by the WPA or the CCC in the 30's. Very cool with scenic overlooks for the falls.........
