WASHINGTON, D.C. – For your planning purposes, on Thursday, December 7, U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin and National Park Service Director Chuck Sams will join Ice Age Trail Alliance leadership to announce a new designation for the Ice Age Scenic Trail that will unlock additional federal funding to help maintain the 1,200-mile trail that crisscrosses Wisconsin. Thursday’s announcement will also benefit Wisconsin’s North Country National Scenic Trail.
Senator Baldwin has worked since 2014 to secure additional federal resources for Wisconsin’s National Scenic Trails. The National Scenic Trails in Wisconsin drive economic growth through tourism and the use of local businesses in construction and maintenance activities.
