North Creek Loop Trail Ribbon Cutting

The Town of Boulder Junction North Creek Loop Trail Committee cordially invites
the public to join them for a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony marking the completion of the newest addition to
the Heart of Vilas County Paved Bike Trail System—the North Creek Loop Trail. The ceremony will take
place on Friday, August 30, 2024 at 10:30am at the wayside located at Highway H and Highway K in
Boulder Junction.
The event will commence with dignitaries speaking at 10:30am, followed by a ribbon cutting ceremony.
In the spirit of celebration, complimentary cake and refreshments will be served.
The North Creek Loop Trail Project began in 2017, initiated by residents and businesses along Highway
H who sought safe access for biking, walking, and other non-motorized activities into Boulder Junction
and the existing Heart of Vilas County Trail Bike Trail System.
Spanning 3.3 miles of paved trail, the North Creek Loop Trail now completes the new 14-mile loop of
the Heart of Vilas County Trail system in Boulder Junction, running from Highway K to North Creek
Road. Trail users can then connect via North Creek Road to access the existing bike trail along Highway
M, creating a seamless route back to Boulder Junction. This new trail provides a safe and picturesque
option for campers at Camp Holiday and Upper Gresham Lake State Forest campground, as well as
residents and bicyclists in the Boulder Junction area.
The Town of Boulder Junction, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Town and Country
Engineers, and Pitlik and Wick collaborated in managing the project, with Pitlik and Wick serving as the
general contractor. Funding for the project came from grants, generous donations, and the Town of
Boulder Junction room tax fund. The Boulder Junction Community Foundation acted as the appointed
fiduciary.
