The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) conservation wardens and park staff will join the public in finding their adventure along the Military Ridge State Trail this Memorial Day weekend.
The 40-mile Military Ridge State Trail, in Iowa and Dane counties, connects Dodgeville and Madison by way of an 1855 military route between Verona and Dodgeville. The trail runs along the southern borders of Governor Dodge and Blue Mound state parks passing by agricultural lands, woods, wetlands, and prairies.
Those out recreating on Memorial Day weekend along Wisconsin state trails will likely see DNR staff including Conservation Warden Jake Donar, who will be checking trail passes, sharing safety tips, and answering rider questions.
