Timm's Hill Trails

Ogema, Wis.

Trail Options:   16.1 km – This trail connects the High Point Trail at Timm's Hill in Ogema to the Rib Lake Nordic Ski Trail. The south end of the trail is fairly flat and gets progressively hillier offering more of a challenge for the intermediate to advanced skier. Groomed for classic and skating. Snowshoeing permitted on ungroomed side of trail.

Trail Description: The trail passes through a wide variety of forest types including regrowth of aspen clear cuts, pine plantation, hemlock, cedar groves and towering hardwood stands. Part of the trail follows a 19th century logging road that connected the early logging camps and passes a 20 X 300 long sleigh cut that was used to transport the timber to the mill in Rib lake. Many glacial features are highlighted by a section between Hultman and Stone lakes where the trail follows the top of an esker that is over 1/4-mile long and 60 feet high. Please do not snowshoe on the tracked portion of the cross-country ski trail.

Ownership: High Point Chapter of the Ice Age Park
