I just thought of this. for those of you who are coming to the campout via northbound 53, through Eau Claire and Lake Hallie, and using autorouting on your GPSr’s…the route will probally not match where you have to go. They’re adding a bypass for hiway 53 and have changed the ramps and roads in the area. As long as you follow the signs, and not your Autoroutes (dad :P) you’ll be fine.
I just wonder when they’ll get that bypass done.
river_rat, do signs on 53 direct travelers to Lake Wissota State Park? I’m assuming people should take 53 north all the way to Highway S exit north of Chippewa Falls and then Highway S east to Highway O to the park. The only confusing part, besides all the construction in Eau Claire, would be in Lake Hallie where to stay on 53 one must turn off the road they’re on (by Shopko and Walmart, for those that like landmarks).
Coming from the east, I think the signs on Highway 29 direct one to take X to K to O to the park.
The bypass is scheduled to be done this September. Considering the rate they’re moving dirt around, if there aren’t any significant weather delays, I bet they’ll be done around that time.

the park is pretty well posted. I didn’t have any trouble finding it after my GPS told me to drive across the lake….lol
your synopsis sounds good….takes all the adventure out of people missing the turn by shopko in Lake Hallie though lol
