This 1,200-mile Trail in the U.S. Follows the Path of the Last Ice Age Glacier-and It Has Waterfalls, Rock Formations, and Fall Colors

More than 12,000 years ago, as massive ice sheets that once blanketed much of North America began to retreat, they carved the dramatic landscapes we see today. Nowhere is this legacy more striking than in Wisconsin, where the remnants of glaciation are considered some of the world's best examples of how ice shapes the Earth. One of the most enduring of those remnants is the Ice Age Trail-a 1,200-mile route that traces the path of the last continental glacier and highlights Wisconsin's most scenic terrain.

1.1 Million Retirees in Wisconsin Qualify For The 'Senior Deduction' Under Big, Beautiful Bill

Under the One Big Beautiful Bill, 88% of seniors nationwide will owe no federal taxes on their Social Security benefits-up from 64% under the previous tax structure. That means about 51.4 million older Americans will see more money stay in their pockets during retirement. "This amounts to the largest tax break in history for America's seniors," a White House release noted, "and makes sure that after years of earning their Social Security, seniors can save more of their money". Thanks to increased deductions-now totaling $23,750 for single seniors and $46,700 for married couples-most beneficiaries will have enough to fully offset their Social Security income from taxation.
