'extra-special thing to do' on your trip
to the northwoods of Wisconsin.

This is something you will not want to miss!
Whether you live here or are visiting Wisconsin's beautiful northwoods,
you will be impressed with what we do, where we go, and what we have to share.
If interested in regional history, nature, ecology, geology, wildlife,
forests, nature's beauty, glacial history, lakes, rivers or watersheds -
or the legends and lore of the northwoods,
a Down To Earth Eco-Geo-History Tour
should be near the top of your 'To Do List'.
You will have a super day!
Explore the Natural History, Cultural History,
& Geologic/Glacial History of
Wisconsin's northwoods.
Our smaller group size is more personal
and allows for more interaction,
and our 14-passenger bus gets us there in comfort.
A one-of-a-kind day, a feast-in-the-forest picnic, and
a special day of discovery & learning -
all for the price of a round of golf!
Probably cheaper!
Indulge yourself in our spectacular 'Feast-in-the-Forest'
picnic lunch we truly enjoy along the way.
Tours cover portions of Bayfield County, Sawyer County and
Douglas County - all special & fascinating landscapes.

Special Event!
Kristen Westlake's Eco-Photo
Northoods Adventure
in the Works
World class nature/wildlife photographer
to bring a 3-day combination eco-photo vacation to the northwoods.
See her photos and bio at www.wisconsinphotos.com
This is a unique and exceptional opportunity to learn
from one of the masters of nature photo art.
Scheduled for October 2-4, the absolute best time of
the year in Bayfield County, Wisconsin,
when everything comes together to create perfect weather,
a kaleidoscope of peak fall colors,
(see photo below), the bluest of skies, and, a bonus,
the light for photography is spectacular. In addition,
we will be having a full-moon (97% full) on
October 3rd for a fabulous photo opportunity .
Kristen and I are happy to announce this event at this time as
it will be an extra-special, all-inclusive vacation opportunity for
photographers or nature lovers with a camera.
This will be a top-notch and memorable
vacation opportunity for you!
See the attached Kristen Westlake News for details, information,
costs and reservation information, or go to Kristen's website.
There are only 12 openings for this all-inclusive eco-photo
adventure, so reserve your spot early. Kristen and I have been
planning the event so that this will be a very special
and memorable weekend vacation of learning, photography,
and exploring the northwoods of Wisconsin.
Kristen Westlake, composing the perfect image, while scouting
one of several locations being considered for our
co-venture being planned for October 2-4 in Bayfield County.
An eco-photo adventure/workshop doesn't just come together,
but takes planning, scouting, and evaluation to find
the perfect spots for our guests to make that perfect image.
To many photographers, Kristen included,
the 'hunt' for that perfect shot is as valuable an experience
as getting the right shot.We will help you get there,
but you will have to frame it and snap the shutter.
This Kristen Westlake Eco-Photo Adventure is both a photo
workshop and a Down To Earth learning adventure - combined.
The photo op locations are as spectacular as
the eco-geo-history stories are fascinating. You will treasure this
mini-vacation for years to come.
A Down To Earth
Eco-Geo-History Tour is unique.
Nowhere in Wisconsin is there a similar type of
recreational activity - nowhere.
To many, one major goal of their vacation is
to truly learn about the place they visit - this is exactly what we offer.
Some of our guests have compared our tour
to a national park-like guided tour, or an 'Elderhostel' program.
Join us, and, like our many enthusiastic guests over the past three years,
you will create a new page in your 'fantastic vacations' memory book.
