There is a great article on bike trails in the News-Review. The author, Diedre Strauss, is the first person in the local press to really get it:
"Vilas County may someday be able to boast not only the finest snowmobile trail system in the state, but also the finest network of nonmotorized trails as well."
One Criticism: The article rightfully credits Boulder Junction as being the first town to develop a trail, but doesn't mention Jeff Long, the Boulder Junction Chair, whose vision got the wheels rolling, so to speak.
I will have more to say on this later, but here is an important link provided in the article:
" “Trek the Northwoods” is a 40-page publication promoted by the Vilas County Chamber of Commerce and other northern counties that contains complete information about bicycle trails including maps, services and descriptions of the many types of trails to be found throughout the county.
To obtain one of these free guides, visit the Trek the Northwoods Web site at www.northwoodsbiking.com/vilas.htm or call 1-(800) 236-3649."
Thanks, News-Review!
