Camping, Towers and other Cool Places

Though just being outdoors or exploring someplace can be a lot of fun, there are other things to do in the area as well! There are towers to climb, bike tails to ride upon, state parks to visit and campsites for a weekend getaway. These places are scattered across the area with some being closer to UMM than other.

The map on the bottom right of this page is a google based and shows all these other places of interest around the area. You can use this to explore the options and location of what is around and get directions from it. To its right is all the areas of interest broken into categories. Clicking on a bold name will pull up a printable mini-map of the site and a small description. The others follow links to the best source of information for that site.
