Abstract
Five walking-trail units (9 to 40 miles per unit) were developed on the Nicolet National Forest in northeastern Wisconsin between 1962 and 1968. Although designed primarly for ruffed grouse ( Bonssa umbellus ) hunters, other uses, by snowmobiles, hikers, and deer hunters, emphasize multiple-use values of trail developments and the importance of their coordination with other National Forest activities. Walking-trail development included construction and maintenance of trails, forest openings and other habitat, parking areas, gates, foot-path markers, signs, maps and scenic overlooks. Public response and hunting results were favorable.
