Boardwalk in Village of Cross Plains Zander park now opened and finished both sides of Wisconsin/Southern RR. Wife and I hiked entire complex last Saturday, Dec. 16, 2018. Parallels Black Earth Creek. Elevated above much wetland not accessible previously. Bridge at Old Fire Station allows access over RR tracks to New Fire House on Bourbon Road. Open to foot and bicycle traffic. No vehicular traffic. Well made, sturdy, and fresh lumber scent still lingers.
