Description
A fall hike through the grasslands (trailhead parking area > Island Lake > Grasslands Esker > Long Lake Ridge > Raptor Ridge > Hummocks and Hillocks area > parking), a personal favorite area.
- some trails, but mostly off-trail in the grasslands
- a scenic area, the best of Lac du Bois Grasslands Park
- lunch along the way at a viewpoint above Long Lake (bring something to sit on)
- some hills to climb, but none of them are long
- I recommend wearing gaiters to keep the thread-and-needle grass, stickseed, and burrs off the pants
- dress for the weather
