Pine View Campground WI to Brushy Creek State Park Iowa — Driving Directions
The drive was a fairly pleasant except for the horrible bumpety bump bump from driving on Hwy 21 leaving the Pine View towards Tomah. All other roads were in fairly good condition, and we were able to drive 65 most of the time. The only area with a few minor hills was in Minnesota along…
