Sandstone Ledges Spur in Copper Falls State Park to the Wisconsin/Michigan state line
Welcome to scenic northern Wisconsin! The Heritage Chapter of the NCTA invites you to enjoy the forests, lakes and rivers of our trail country in Iron and Ashland counties. Our Chapter was formed to develop, maintain and promote the use of the North Country National Scenic Trail from Copper Falls State Park near Mellen to the Wisconsin-Michigan border. This area of the North Country Trail remains one of the most remote sections of the Trail in Wisconsin. Many of the Heritage Chapter’s most active members come from areas far away from the Trail’s route in Ashland and Iron counties. In fact, many are from the Milwaukee area and members often carpool together up to the Trail area. We are always looking for new volunteers, even those who may be brand new to trail building and maintenance. In addition, we are always looking for help with other activities such as tool maintenance, camp cooking and outreach. Many of these activities need not involve trips to Northern Wisconsin. If you’re interested in helping in any way, please contact us we will see how you can get involved. Feel like you might be too busy? Volunteers can attend as many or as few events as they are able to and may spend as much time at an event as their schedule permits. There are no minimum attendance requirements. We welcome your help whenever you are able to provide it. In addition, we welcome those who may wish to try one event before becoming more involved.
