Peace under the canopy

I am an ultra marathoner. I always camp close by before my big races to get my head into the mindset of what I'll be running through. I love Pinewoods because it is up and away from the racket of the usual radios and noisy children. This is because it is a 24 hour quiet area. You will hear and see birds, as well as deer and various other wildlife. I took a hike-in spot that is a little more secluded, but it is mostly back-in style car camping. There is a well kept shower house, and a play area up and away by the showers that doesn't carry much noise. I've stayed here several times and plan to several more. You are smack in the middle of the Kettle Moraine State Forest's Southern Unit, so there are nearly unlimited trails very close by for nature hikes. Or, if you're like me and a trail runner, there is plenty of challenging single track with a lot of vertical gain. Recommended.
