Open Space 2005 Draft Report Adobe Acrobat . Imagine all you can do year-round throughout the Dane County Park System.
Winter can be one of the most exciting times of the year.
Miles of specially groomed trails winding through dense woodlands, rolling hills and open meadows provide snowmobilers or cross-country skiers with boundless views and ideal conditions. Smooth, white blankets of snow contrast with the diversity of structural shapes, bark colors and textures of trees and shrubbery. Winter is an ideal time for following animal tracks in freshly fallen snow, for quiet walks, ice fishing, or observing winter birds, wildlife and plants. Contact the County Park Office for additional information on winter programs. Spring reveals to nature lovers the wonders of new life uncovered from the melting blanket of white.
