Experience the Apostle Islands, the Crown Jewels of Northern Wisconsin with a group of adventure-minded BOW women. Feel the thrill of crossing big water, and enjoy gliding through sandstone arches, and in and out of sea caves.
The Apostle Islands National Lakeshore is a U.S. national lakeshore consisting of 21 islands and about 70,000 acres of shoreline. It is known for its collection of historic lighthouses, sandstone sea caves, a few old-growth remnant forests, and cultural history. For us, it is the perfect playground for adventure and exploration.
