2023 Trip #4 – Wyalusing State Park

The last time we stayed at Wisconsin’s Wyalusing Sate Park was 14 years ago.

We camped at site #130

We started coming to this state park in 2006. This is our 4th time staying at the Wisconsin Ridge Campground.

My last memory of camping here was during a strong Spring thunderstorm in 2009. It rolled up the Wisconsin River as I was taking a shower in the nearby shower house. As I left the shower building, I had to scramble back to our RV to quickly raise our outdoor awning because the storm was threatening to blow it off. After we raised the awning, we came into our RV covered with wet leaves that had blown off the trees. Then we watched several tents blow over and an awning rip off a nearby camper. It was very exciting.

In 14 years Wyalusing campground has changed. It seems smaller. Maybe that’s because the foliage between each site has been allowed to grow wild.

What makes this campground special is the views of the Wisconsin River that lies below the ridge.

Most of my photos are “washed out” because of the haze from the Canadian wild fires.

    Ewwww.. the Canadian fire smoke is so darn graphic! Driving north into Milwaukee on Tuesday I noticed the same effect as I viewed the Milwaukee skyline shrouded with the same smokey veil.

    Haven’t been there in years either but our last trip also ended with a wind and lightning storm. We had a pop up camper and felt very uncomfortable during the storm.
