I’ve hiked these trails more times than I can count, but never as slow as we did today 😂 then again… maybe that’s the whole point? To slow down and experience it through her eyes.

Today’s hike at Whitewater State Park was our first time trying out our 2005 Pathfinder backpack carrier that I found on FB marketplace (dare I say vintage). We still have some adjusting to do, but it already feels so nice being able to explore places the stroller simply can’t.

Everything is finally so green & it feels like summer!

Ever wonder why you see so many bald eagles in the Driftless Region? 🦅

The Mississippi River through the Driftless Region is basically an eagle paradise, year round.

💧 Open water = easy fishing
Thanks to dams and fast-moving sections, parts of the river don’t fully freeze in winter → which means food is always available

🐟 Endless food supply
Fish, waterfowl, and even animal carcasses make this stretch of river a reliable buffet

🪹 Perfect nesting habitat
The towering bluffs and old-growth trees give eagles safe, high nesting spots near the water

🌳 Migration hotspot
The Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge is one of the best places in the country to spot migrating (and resident) eagles

That’s why the Driftless isn’t just a stop along the way…
for many eagles, it’s home 🤍

All photos taken just last week.

📍 Stockholm Pie & General Store

The Driftless is home to this nationally recognized pie shop that has been named #1 Pie Shop in America (2024 & 2025)—and once you try it, you’ll understand why. Every pie is made completely from scratch.

A stop at Stockholm Pie & General Store feels like stepping into a simpler time—tucked along the Great River Road with views of the Mississippi River and surrounded by Driftless bluffs.

It’s more than just pie, though—think homemade sandwiches, salads, ice cream, and a charming general store filled with local goods and nostalgic finds.

🥧 Small town charm, big-time flavor
🚗 A true Driftless destination worth the drive

Peep the little hand at the end 🥰

Tundra swans are moving through the Mississippi Flyway right now.

After driving around for 45mins yesterday in search of them, I returned to one of my favorite spots in hopes to see them - Lake Reid Park near Alma, WI, the wind pushed them deep into the Mississippi backwaters - and that’s exactly where I found them.

Surrounded by bluffs, the echo of their calls, the still water and the calmness of stick season. Pure Driftless peace. 🤍🦢
