Yeah I know that area. New note*** we do not need running water. My wife has decided there is too much going on at home and will be stay behind this trip. My son has ACT test that saturady and she wants to be around for him. That said I'm a pretty grungey guy when I want to be, so running water won't be an issue which means we can camp where ever. I will look into the camper pop-up rules for the forest.

Special NOTE*** Bears - Northern Wisconsin has much remote back country through which the North Country Trail passes. Naturally the bear population is much higher than other parts of the country. Hikers and overnight campers should take special precautions with food. No food should be eaten or kept in tents. If possible, meals should be prepared well away from tent areas. Food should be placed in suspended packs where bears cannot reach them away from the tent area.
