Upham
Woods is the result of an amazingly far-sighted vision of two sisters
from the Upham family. In 1941, when the United States was growing
rapidly at the expense of its natural resources, Elizabeth and Caroline
Upham decided to save their beloved childhood summer home from the
hands of developers forever. These sisters laid the philosophical
groundwork for Upham Woods with their stipulations of the land's
use. They wrote: "These lands are to be used as an outdoor
laboratory and camp for youth, such as 4-H clubs and other people
cooperating with the University of Wisconsin in the advancement of
conservation, of agriculture and rural culture." Read
