Join me on a ride to the newly designated Hackmatack National Wildlife Refuge. We'll start from the north side of Sternes Woods park in Crystal Lake and ride north on the Prairie Trail. We'll meet Roger and King returning from their overnight camping trip somewhere around Ringwood or Glacial Park. We'll start a little earlier because the trail has little shade and it will be a warm day
Starting Location:
To get to the parking lot take Northwest Highway/US14 towards Crystal Lake. Turn right on Pingree Road (may also be labeled Terra Cotta) after crossing the Rt 31 overpass. Just a little bit less than 3 miles, make a left on Hillside. Cross the railroad tracks and park in the lot on the left. There is a vault toilet and water. Use 5320 Hillside, Crystal Lake 60012 for GPS. Google says about 45 minutes from Schaumburg
Distance: | 20-25 miles |
Average Speed: | 10-13 |
Leader: | Wayne Heinmiller
