(From left) Army veterans Sean McConaghy and Brady Maxwell set out the morning of June 9 to hike the 1,200-mile Ice Age Trail from its eastern terminus at Potawatomi State Park. After a sendoff by members of VFW Post 3088 in Sturgeon Bay, the men will spend a couple of months walking across the state to St. Croix – the trail’s western terminus – in a therapeutic program run by the nonprofit Warrior Expeditions.
