Blazing Babes

Clip: Season 3 Episode 5 | 5m 35sVideo has Closed Captions

Pat Witkowski leads a crew of female volunteers who mark parts of the Ice Age Trail.

Pat Witkowski never does anything half-heartedly, so when she started hiking the Ice Age Trail near her home in Oconomowoc she ended up hiking their entire 1,000+ mile trail. She decided to volunteer on the trail and ended up leading a team of women who have earned the title the "Blazing Babes." They meet every Thursday to paint “blazes” or visual markers on sign posts and trees along the trail.
