Ice Age Trail Corridor

The IceAgeTrailCorridor feature class is a polygon which shows the corridor or area considered a zone of opportunity that is used to focus the efforts of the various partners, volunteers, agencies and organizations working to complete the Ice Age National Scenic Trail. The proposed corridor averages one to five miles in width. It is significantly wider than what is actually needed to allow flexibility for routing. The trail will only pass through the property of willing participants. The Ice Age National Scenic Trail is a thousand-mile footpath entirely within Wisconsin that celebrates the legacy of the Ice Age. Diverse geological features along the Trail rank among the finest examples of continental glaciation anywhere in the world. No one entity owns all the land through which the Ice Age Trail passes. The Trail passes through a patchwork of lands owned by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Ice Age Park & Trail Foundation, county parks, local municipalities and hundreds of generous private landowners.
