Wisconsin 400 State Bike Trail celebrating 20th anniversary<br />
The 22-mile long 400 State Bike Trail is marking 20 years<br />
on June 8.<br />
The anniversary is being feted with celebrations in the<br />
fi ve Wisconsin towns — Reedsburg, LaValle, Wonewoc,<br />
Union Center and Elroy.<br />
Developed on an abandoned Chicago-Northwestern<br />
Railroad right-of-way, the trail is named for the Chicago-<br />
Toronto’s Edgewalk attraction<br />
takes visitors on edge of CN Tower<br />
If you’re scared of heights, take a deep breath before taking the Edgewalk<br />
at CN Tower.<br />
With guests dangling 1,168 feet above Toronto, it’s an experience to thrill<br />
the senses and fray the nerves. The 1½-hour experience includes a 20- to<br />
30-minute outdoor walk.<br />
“It all started with the tower’s business development team. We asked, ‘What<br />
can we do that’s different, exciting and attractive to all our markets?,’” said<br />
Jack Robinson, CN Tower’s chief operating offi cer. “We knew there was a high<br />
walk in New Zealand and another in China. Both of those are around 600<br />
feet up, so how could we do the same at 1,200 feet? We pulled together a team<br />
of architects, engineers and marketers and came up with the concept of the<br />
EdgeWalk.”<br />
Launched in August 2011 with an abbreviated run, it was open from May<br />
2012 through Jan. 6, 2013, for its 2012 season. It opens for its third season in<br />
April.<br />
