Northeastern Wisconsin Snowmobile Trail Conditions, Reports, Weather, and local Events Calendar

Updated August thru March

2009 Calendar of Events


Welcome to Northern Destinations.com and Silvercliff.com!

...

 

Silvercliff.com is one of the oldest "Blogs" on the internet, started in 1998. It was set up to keep people informed about all of the fun stuff that we do here in Northeast Wisconsin. We like to camp, fish, whitewater raft, snowmobile, and check out waterfalls, birds, bears, and eagles too. Being a photographer, I usually have a camera along and bring the pictures back to share. I update the pages regularly with local events too.

NorthernDestinations.com is a directory of web sites that we have written for area businesses. There is a great selection of places to eat, drink, camp, stay, raft, fish, golf, snowmobile, and get supplies. Hopefully this will help to introduce you to good local businesses and help you plan your time here. We now have a growing list of trusted contractors to help you build, decorate, heat, and outfit your home.

Please explore our web site and visit the northwoods from the comfort of your computer!
