Upper and Lower Potato River Falls, in Wisconsin, is a combined .8 mile hike with the falls reached seperately by two sets of stairs of approximately 200 ea. Their is a primitive NF campground at the trailhead and primitive restrooms.

I just completed a trip to the great lakes area, hunting waterfalls. This was one of the Waterfalls I hunted out. On this trip I hiked to a total of 24 falls while completing 44 hikes ranging from .2 miles to 8 miles in the states of Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio. This was accomplished in 7 days, Aug 27th to Sept 3rd.

SHAWN, THIS IS A TEST POSTING. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU WOULD HAVE ME DO DIFFERENT. THANKS.

I think this is great :) I can add more custom fields to it. Do you think it needs anymore? Thanks for posting this!
 
You requested all pics be 2mb or less, most of mine were 3-5. I don’t know how to reduce them?
Yeah 3-5 MB is large for internet photos. When I upload photos to my blog, I always reduce them to under 250kb. Large photos are really only best for print. Usually, you can use a photo editor to shrink them down or even resize them.

If I enabled 3-5 MB photos, it would make the site really slow.
