CHE members explored the Ice Age Trail and took time to enjoy the scenery and stopped to read some poetry on a beautiful fall afternoon.
During three days of presentations, workshops, and activities, CHE associates and guests immersed themselves in place-based investigations around these and other questions, which represent the interests and missions of both CHE and the UW-Arboretum.
This panel presentation consisted of four presentations on topics about the intersection of audio and the environment.
For the undergraduate awards, first place went to Avery Ponto, second place to Ava Schueller, and third place to Madelyn Anderson. The graduate award was given to Meg Wilson.
The visit to Pheasant Branch Creek Conservancy was filled with fall colors and wildlife sightings.
In this Place-Based Workshop, CHE associates experienced both the spatial and temporal dimensions of Wisconsin railroads as they investigated histories of and along the tracks, experienced travel on the trains of today, explored reincarnations of trackage as bike and recreation trails, and imagined the future of rail lines in the state, all the while bearing in mind the importance of the railroad as a nexus of human lives, diverse landscapes, and mineral resources.
On May 6, 2023, CHE visited Indian Lake County Park.
The second CHE walk was held at Devil’s Lake State Park/Tewakącąk. We walked on the west shore and over the frozen lake.
