Day in Death’s Door

A group of retired Door County residents have a hiking club led by Al Wittenkeller. They hike together from October to March (and snowshoe in the winter months), and every summer Wittenkeller organizes a special outing. On Aug. 11, they went to Plum Island for a hike. The trip started from Gills Rock aboard the Yankee Clipper. Friends of Plum and Pilot Islands were on hand to provide historical interpretation and to lead the hikes. Captain Chris also took the group past Pilot Island. They would like to thank everyone involved for a wonderful day in Death’s Door. Photo by Tim Sweet.
