North Kettle Moraine Chapter

FOND DU LAC & SHEBOYGAN COUNTIES
The Ice Age Trail lies within the Kettle Moraine through Fond du Lac and Sheboygan counties, where volunteer trail building began in the 1920s. Wetlands, large and small, intersperse several forested uplands. The portion of Trail in the Northern Kettle Moraine State Forest highlights formations of kettles, kames and eskers.

Greenbush Kettle is one of the most symmetrical, deep kettles in the area. Other larger, more irregularly shaped kettles include Elkhart and Crystal Lakes.

The area roughly between the Ice Age Trail and Long Lake contains one of the most striking groups of kames to be found anywhere in the world. Dundee, Johnson and McMullen hills are some of the most well known and can be viewed from atop the Parnell Observation Tower.
