Thousand-Miler Hiker Recognition

Plan on hiking the entire Ice Age Trail? Become a Thousand-Miler so we may honor your feat … and your feet! It doesn’t matter if you hike it all in one trip or segment by segment over time. Once you’ve completed the journey, submit the application below.

Recognized Thousand-Milers will:

  • Have their name read at a statewide Ice Age Trail event
  • Receive a Thousand-Miler certificate and patch
  • Have their name printed in Mammoth Tales magazine
  • Have their name added to the official database of Ice Age Trail Thousand-Milers

IAPTF policy operates on the honor system, assuming that applicants for Thousand-Miler status have hiked all 1,000+ miles of the Ice Age Trail between Potawatomi and Interstate state parks. Hiking all segments of connecting roads is necessary to qualify. Issues of sequence, direction, speed, length of time or whether one carries a pack or not are not considered. Please respect these standards as they are essential to the integrity of the true achievement of being a Thousand-Miler.  And most importantly … happy hiking!

*** Note: The term "Thousand-Miler" is used as a matter of convenience — No one knows the exact length of the future completed Ice Age Trail. Changing the designation of this recognition each time the length changes would be impractical.

Hike-a-Segment Programs

Would you like to be a Traprock Trekker, Superior Lobetrotter or Walk the Wauker? These are three awards you can earn along the Ice Age Trail, by completing all of the trail miles that lie within a participating Chapter’s geographical area of responsibility.

Just complete a registration form, available from the chapters listed below, and mail it in with the nominal fee. Maps, hiking information and a hiking log will be mailed back to you. Simply log your progress, send it back to the chapter and you will receive an Ice Age Trail patch, a matching chapter rocker patch, and a certificate. Additionally, in the northern chapters a $10 gift certificate from Adventures Restaurant is included.
