Wisconsinfag here.
Many people think we're just a flat state with nothing but cornfields, but we actually have 4 different eco-systems that all have different landscape. They are
>Eastern lowlands ridges
This is where all of the cities and civilization is. This is mostly on the lake, so there are some rock bluffs, and the niagra escaprement. We also have a few caves along the lakeshore. There are a lot of wetlands, and subtle 1,000 foot hills here and there. A lot of the good /out/ stuff is northeast ridge area up near the door peninsula. All kinds of crazy shit up there.
>Western Uplands
This is called "The Driftless Region". It's gorgeous. It's like 50 miles of Appalachia was randomly dropped in Wisconsin. It's a big stretch of 2,000 foot hills in between narrow valleys. The highways wrap around the hills and valleys so it feels like a roller coaster as you ascend and descend every 2 miles. Has rattle snakes, amish people, and huge bluffs. Barely any towns with more than 1,000 people. Many decent /out/ spots spread out, a lot of it is organic farm land though.
>Highlands
Nothing but untouched wilderness up north. Just a gigantic national forest that stretches from Wisconsin up to Michigan. The elevation goes from 200 feet to 1,000 feet consistently. Vast thick pine forests and countless lakes/gorges. You can go exploring out here and discover all kinds of interesting things out in the woods. You can also die and nobody will ever find you. Usually you won't hardly see a single person up here.
>Midland Plains
Where all the serial killers are from. Not much here, just some wetlands for hunting.
>Northern Uplands
Haven't been here, but this is the area where the islands on lake superior are.
Overall I'd probably give Wisconsin a 6. It would have a higher score if it wasn't matched up against the breathtaking mountains of the West. The only thing Wisconsin has over the west is forest diversity and lake michigan.
