State Newport State Park located northeast of Ellison Bay on the tip of the Door Peninsula, is Wisconsin s only formally designated Wilderness Park. It contains 2,373 acres and 11 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline. Cool winds off Lake Michigan create habitats similar to boreal forests supporting plant life typically found in Canada. The Park contains evergreen and hardwood forests, wetlands, and upland meadows, and offers an interpretive center, naturalist program, and 38 miles of trails, all of them open for hiking. Of these, 17 miles are open to off-road bicycles. In the winter, 26 miles of trails are available for cross-country skiing, including 12.5 miles groomed and tracked for classical skiing, 2 miles groomed for skate skiing, and 4.5 miles are open for snowshoeing. Peninsula State Park is a 3,776-acre state park that was established in 1909 and is now one of the largest and most well attended state parks in Wisconsin. Peninsula State Park, considered Wisconsin's most complete park, receives over one million visitors annually. The Park has nearly seven miles of Green Bay shoreline and contains a landscape of forests, meadows, wetlands, and 150-foot rocky bluffs. The park offers a wide variety of summer and winter outdoor recreational activities. Nature and hiking trails, snowmobile, and cross-country ski trails, mountain bike trails, a beach, a picnic area with concessions, a boat launch, a nature center, and a lighthouse are facilities available for park visitors. The majority of the park is forested, mainly with white birch and other northern hardwoods. The large acreage and mostly undeveloped character of the park makes it a prime natural area for the Region. Potawatomi State Park is located on the shores of Sturgeon Bay. The park is owned and run by the Wisconsin DNR and consists of nearly 1,200 acres of flat to gently rolling terrain, with steep slopes along the shoreline. Most of the park is heavily wooded.

A 75-foot observation tower rises above the forest canopy, giving a panoramic view of Sawyer Harbor. On a clear day, the view from the Park's observation tower reaches 16 miles across Green Bay. Rock Island State Park is a 912-acre island in Lake Michigan, accessible only by ferry from Washington Island. There are stone buildings on the island that were built by a wealthy inventor who owned the island between 1910 and Cars, and even bikes, are not allowed on Rock Island, but there is 10 miles of hiking trails, including a one-mile interpretive trail, 40 reservable campsites, a naturalist program, and 5,000 feet of beach. Governor Tommy G. Thompson Centennial State Park lies on 2,187 acres and is located 13 miles northwest of Crivitz in Marinette County. The site protects 5,300 feet of shoreline on Wood and Huber Lakes and protects Handsaw Creek and Woods Outlet, both excellent brook and brown trout waters. The main parcel creating the park is the 1,987-acre Paust Woods Lake Resort and about 200 acres of wild-looking lakefront purchased from Wisconsin Public Service Corporation on Caldron Falls Reservoir. The park includes frontage on two inland lakes - Woods Lake and Huber Lake - as well as several cold, clear trout-inhabited streams. Wildlife abounds on this extensively forested site; deer, grouse, and turkey are the most abundant. The natural balance of
3 wooded upland and wetland provides diverse natural habitats and the ability to support many recreational activities. Whitefish Dunes State Park is an 865-acre day use park set along Lake Michigan. It was established in 1967 to protect the fragile dune environment. Whitefish Dunes has more visitors than any other day use park in Wisconsin. Its shoreline, composed of sandy shoreline and rocky bluffs, extends nearly 3 miles. An observation deck offers views of the park's forests, wetlands, and the shoreline, which displays intriguing ice formations on frigid Lake Michigan waves in the winter. The park offers features for people with disabilities including an accessible beach grid system and interpretive loop. Whitefish Dunes has 14 miles of hiking trails, of which 11 miles are groomed for winter skiing. The park also offers a 2.5-mile multi-use winter trail for snowshoers and hikers. Whitefish Dunes State Park is also a designated State Natural Area offering a combination of natural features including rugged Lake Michigan shoreline, dense upland forest, shoreline on an interior lake, a winding creek with wetlands, and the highest sand dunes in Wisconsin. Door County Baileys Harbor Boreal Forest and Wetlands is a 434-acre site containing a boreal forest, that is dominated by Balsam fir and white spruce, which eventually grades into a northern wet-mesic forest. The forest supports a variety of plant and animal species including the federally threatened dwarf lake iris. The area also protects over 1.5 miles of undeveloped Lake Michigan shoreline, which is one of the few nesting areas in the state for the common goldeneye. Bayshore Blufflands contains 124 acres of land owned by the Door County Land Trust and the Nature Conservancy. The site is located along more than three miles of the Niagara Escarpment and rises feet above the bay of Green Bay. The carbonate cliffs and outcroppings that form the bluffs are home to a variety of land snails including the state threatened cherrystone drop snail. This area of the escarpment is also home to several uncommon plant species such as climbing fumitory, mountain maple, bulbet fern, common polypody, and fragile fern. Located above the escarpment is a beautiful dry-mesic forest that is dominated by red and white pine and red oak, which slowly grades into a richer, mesic forest with a small wet-mesic forest. The forested area also contains many rare plant species including the federally threatenwed dwarf lake iris. Big and Little Marsh is a 167-acre site located on Washington Island. The site features an intricate landscape of boreal rich fen, northern wet-mesic forest, and a large emergent aquatic marsh on marl that supports a wide variety of plant and animal species. Coffey Swamp, located on Washington Island, occupies 108 acres of a former embayment of Lake Michigan. The site features a shallow, hard water seepage pond that is surrounded by a treeless, boreal rich fen containing wire-leaved sedges, sweet gale, and hoary willow. The site also contains a northern wet-mesic forest that is dominated by white cedar. Detroit Harbor is a 75-acre site owned by the Door County Land Trust that supports a diverse landscape of intermittent, emergent, and forested wetlands. The wetlands in the area support many species of migratory birds, such as the Caspian tern, the redhead duck, the American white pelican, and the bald eagle, by providing a stopover point and breeding habitat. The natural area also contains the Richter Bayou, which is an important smallmouth bass nursery.
4 Ellison Bluff lies on 170 acres along Ellison Bay and features densely wooded two-tiered rock terraces, which are part of the Niagara Escarpment. Cliffs in this area contain enough ledges to support heavy forests containing white cedar, Canada yew, mountain maple, red pine, basswood, and red elderberry. The site is part of Ellison Bluff County Park, which is owned and maintained by Door County. Europe Bay Woods, located on an isthmus between Lake Michigan and Europe Lake, is made up of 200 acres of land that lies within Newport State Park. The site features over one mile of Great Lakes dunes and beaches, red pine groves, boreal forest, and northern dry-mesic and mesic forests. Kangaroo Lake is 357-acre site located just outside of Baileys Harbor that is owned by The Nature Conservancy and the Door County Land Trust. This natural area is significant in that it contains one of a very few undeveloped marl lakes. The lake is fed by Piel Creek, which is a critical habitat for the federally endangered Hine s emerald dragonfly as it is one of only two known reproducing populations in the country. Kangaroo Lake is surrounded by northern upland forest, northern wet-mesic forest, and marsh. The entire natural area supports a variety of rare and endangered species including the federally threatened dwarf lake iris, the dorcas copper butterfly, federally threatened bald eagle, state threatened osprey, and state threatened Caspian tern. Jackson Harbor Ridges, located on Washington Island, is a small sheltered harbor that features examples of Lake Michigan beach with low, sandy, and marshy areas, low dunes, and stabilized ridges. Behind the dunes is a mixed conifer-hardwood forest. This harbor serves as an excellent plant refuge because it contains numerous coastal and critical species and is home to several federal and state listed threatened species. Marshall s Point lies on a peninsula between Lake Michigan and North Bay in the town of Liberty Grove. This natural area is an outstanding area exhibition of Lake Michigan s rocky shoreline and a boreal forest of white cedar, balsam fir, and other conifers and hardwoods over dolomite bedrock. Because of its cool microclimate, the area is rich in mosses and liverworts as well as a variety of other rare and restricted vascular plants. The northern mesic forest located in this area has remained undisturbed for over 100 years. The soils in this area are raw humus rendzina, which is undecomposed organic soil over calcareous rock, and are extremely rare. Mink River Estuary is a 1,465-acre site owned by the Wisconsin chapter of The Nature Conservancy that is located outside of Ellison Bay. The site contains one of the most pristine freshwater estuarine systems in the country. The natural area includes a 2-mile widespread of the Mink River that is subject to the water level fluctuations of Lake Michigan. A number of springs feed into the marsh and extensive shrub and conifer swamps surround the wetland area. The estuary is an important site for fish spawning and provides a stopover area for migratory birds. A beach located in this area that lies along Rowley s Bay contains the federally threatened dune thistle and patches of the federally threatened dwarf lake iris. Moonlight Bay Bedrock Beach is a 112-acre site that protects 5 acres of undisturbed, dolomite bedrock beach. When the bedrock is exposed, due to water level fluctuations of Lake Michigan, several rare plant species colonize the area including small fringed gentian, tufted hair grass, and bird s-eye primrose. A boreal forest lies along the ambient shoreline and contains white spruce, white cedar, paper birch, white pine, hemlock, and balsam fir.
5 Mud Lake Wildlife Area contains 1,941 state-owned acres. This site consists of a 155-acre shallow drainage lake, with a maximum depth of five feet, which is surrounded by an extensive shrub and timber swamp. The wetlands and lake provide habitat for a plethora of wildlife, including the federally endangered Hine s emerald dragonfly, as well as a nesting area for many species of waterfowl. This site contains farmland and is part of a county-run snowmobile trail. Newport Conifer-Hardwoods contains 140 acres that features a mix of northern forest types. 60 acres are northern hardwoods with white birch, sugar maple, American beech, and ash. The natural area also features a 3 to 8 foot high dolomite wall running from the northeast to southwest that represents the former shoreline sculpted during the Lake Nippissing stage of Lake Michigan. A hemlock hardwood forest covers another 20 acres of the natural area. North Bay, located outside of Sister Bay, stretches across 225 acres of land and contains one of the last undeveloped stretches of Lake Michigan shore in Door County. The natural area features a variety of landscapes including northern sedge meadow, calcareous fen, northern wet, wetmesic, and mesic forest, boreal forest, springs and spring runs, coastal marshes, and a complex of Lake Michigan dunes. North Bay is a very important spawning area for a majority of Lake Michigan s whitefish population and provides a critical habitat for rare birds (including the federally threatened bald eagle and the state threatened osprey), shorebirds, waterfowl, and migratory bird species. Peninsula Park Beech Forest is a 30-acre piece of land that lies within Peninsula State Park. The park features a range of forest types including a northern mesic forest containing sugar maple, American beech, basswood, and hemlock, along with several large red oak and white pines scattered throughout the forest. There are undeveloped woodlands to the west and north, and undeveloped frontage to the east along Eagle Harbor. This natural area is considered well protected from development because of its location in the state park. Peninsula Park White Cedar Forest, located within Peninsular State Park, is a 53-acre upland white cedar-white birch forest that lies on low cliffs of Niagara dolostone. Open marsh dominated by bluejoint and reed grass, and an open calcareous meadow on an abandoned beach zone lies below the upland forest. A northern dry-mesic forest can be found above and to the east of the cliffs. An extensive northern dry-mesic forest lies adjacent to the area on three sides, and a marsh buffer zone lies to the west. Critical plant species are present. White pine and hemlock occur occasionally along the cliff. The natural area is located in the southwestern portion of the Peninsula State Park and is bordered by undeveloped woodlands to the south, and the unincorporated village of Fish Creek further south. Undeveloped woodlands border the east and north, and marshlands border the west. The natural area is well protected from development because of its state park status, and the adjacent area offers limited development pressures. Rock Island Woods is a 700-plus-acre island located one mile northeast of Jackson Harbor on Washington Island that is entirely publicly owned. Its forest consists of white birch, American beech, and sugar maple. Unusual plant species are found on the islands shaded cliffs and narrow beaches. French artifacts, a Native American cemetery, and other significant items have been discovered through archeological exploration. Sister Islands consists of two low-lying dolostone gravel islands in Green Bay that are considered significant gulleries. An estimated breeding pairs of herring were present in Bird banding and several research projects on gulls have taken place on the islands. High water levels in the early 1980s have greatly reduced the size of the islands. In fact, during
6 the low water levels of the 1960s the islands were connected. Vegetation is primarily composed of pioneering weedy herbs and shrubs. The Ridges Sanctuary was established in 1937 as is recognized as a National Natural Landmark. The 1,070-acre natural area, located in Bailey s Harbor, features a series of crescent-shaped sandy ridges of which each represents a former beach line of Lake Michigan. Many of the ridges are forested with black spruce, white spruce, balsam fir, and white pine, while others remain wet and open. The Ridges Sanctuary is home to many rare and endangered plant species, including the federally threatened dwarf lake iris and over 25 different species of orchid, and is known to contain the largest population of the federally endangered Hine s emerald dragonfly. Thorp Pond is a 184-acre site located in Egg Harbor featuring a 6.4-acre hard-water bog as well as a variety of wetland communities including boreal rich fen, northern wet-mesic forest, and hardwood swamp. The boreal rich fen surrounds the bog, which provides support to a very diverse plant community including tussocks of state threatened coast sedge and tufted bulrush. The fen gives way to a widespread, mature forest that features white cedar, tamarack, black spruce, and black ash. Toft Point is a 686-acre site located on a peninsula between Bailey s Harbor, Lake Michigan, and Moonlight Bay. The natural area contains over a mile of Lake Michigan frontage with cobblestone and rock, dolomite beach. The greater part of the site is forested with a mesic forest that is dominated by sugar maple, yellow birch, hemlock, balsam fir, and white pine. In addition to the forested area, the natural area features a calcareous sedge meadow along Moonlight Bay as well as extensive wetlands containing pockets of tamarack swamp and alder thicket. Toft Point is rich in biodiversity as it contains over 440 species of vascular plants and supports 17 different species of nesting warblers. White Cliff Fen and Forest, which is owned by the Door County Land Trust, lies on 57 acres in the Town of Gibraltar. The natural area lies at the base of the Niagara escarpment and features a deep, undisturbed forest of white cedar and hardwoods that surrounds a calcareous fen. The fen is fed by alkaline ground water rich in calcium and magnesium bicarbonates and is dominated by woolly-fruit sedge and hard-stem bulrush. Whitefish Dunes is a 230-acre site located within Whitefish Dunes State Park. This natural area contains the best developed sand dunes and high quality beach within the state of Wisconsin. The lakeside fore dune is sandy and well vegetated with species such common milkweed, beach pea, and several beach grasses including the state threatened thick-spike wheat grass and the federally threatened dune thistle. The lakeside rear dune is forested with white birch, balsam fir, and white cedar. The forested area is also heavily covered with Canada yew. The dunes located further away from the lake feature northern mesic forest dominated by sugar maple, large-toothed aspen, eastern hemlock, and American beech.
