Directions from Chicago to Glacier Wilderness Campground in Wisconsin

From Chicago, Take 1-294/1-94 North into Milwaukee. In Milwaukee, take I-43 North to Green Bay. Approaching Green Bay, Exit At Wis. Hwy 172 West (Exit 180) and go about 6 miles to U.S. Hwy 41. Take U.S. Hwy 41 North (to Marinette) about 4 miles and Exit at Wis. Hwy 29/32 (Shawano Aye). Stay on Hwy 29 West (which later merges with Wig. Hwy 47/55) into Shawano, about 32 miles. In Shawano, Take Hwy 47/55 North thru Keshena. Just past Keshena, Hwy 47 & 55 split. Take Hwy 55 North for 25 miles (you will pass Shotgun Eddy's on the way) to Wis. Hwy 64 and turn left onto Hwy 64-.going West. Go about 8 miles to Elton. Glacier Wilderness Campground is on the left just off Hwy 64 in Elton. You will see the lighted sign directing you to the campground entrance.

The trip to the campground is about 280 miles from Chicago and should take 5 to 5 1/2 hours. It is Interstate Highway all the way to Green Bay. Since LPL has rented the entire campground, just look around for us when you arrive and someone (who may or may not be sober) will show you where you can plant your tent, place your TV antenna and plug in your cappuccino or espresso maker.

If at any time you get lost, start making a martini. Inevitably, someone will turn a corner, come from behind a tree, or stop you to tell you that you are making it wrong!

To return to Chicago, turn the map upside down and follow it backwards.
