Store description excerpt

EXPLORE THE BADGER LANDS is a free mobile app that features a self-guided, non-linear tour of the former 7,350-acre Badger Army Ammunition Plant. Since 1997, efforts to transform the Badger Lands have resulted in a natural prairie and recreation area that is now enjoyed by thousands of visitors each year. Touring the Badger Lands is an enriching environmental experience, but most of the area’s fascinating history is hidden to those who visit. This app uses GPS to help users locate nearly 70 points of historical interest on public access roads, regional trail systems and along the Great Sauk State Trail. As a navigational and interpretive tool, Explore the Badger Lands offers audio-visual content on the geologic, natural, cultural and conservation histories across the former Badger Army Ammunition Plant, on properties managed by the Ho-Chunk Nation (Maa Wakacak [“Sacred Earth”]), Department of Natural Resources (Sauk Prairie State Recreation Area (SPSRA)), and US Dairy Forage Research Center. It’s especially useful for visitors exploring the 3,450-acre SPSRA which has been open to the public since 2018. The other properties have no public access but can be viewed from the adjacent public roads and trails. Located in Sauk County off Highway 12, the Badger Lands are among Wisconsin’s and the region’s most unique green spaces. They are contiguous with the Baraboo Hills and Devil’s Lake State Park to the north.

EXPLORE THE BADGER LANDS APP is supported in part, by a Badger Oversight Management Commission grant in 2020 and a “Good Idea” grant from the Sauk County Extension Education, Arts & Culture Committee and the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin in 2021.
