🌿 Hiking with Buds: Fall Colors Edition (Parnell Tower) 🍂Crisp trails. Cozy layers. Peak leaf vibes.
Our next Hiking with Buds meet-up takes us to the heart of the Kettle Moraine, just in time for the trees to show off. Think golden leaves, fresh air, and a solid Saturday morning adventure.

This is a moderate 3.5-mile loop with some rolling terrain and a beautiful stretch of the Ice Age National Trail.
