Me and a friend did a modified version of the original SCC (not the diet version from Bikepacking.com) to include more sand, gravel and less traveled roads.
It was a lot of fun and definitely more challenging that I had anticipated but surprisingly enough there was not as much sand as I was expecting.
If you want to do this make sure to do your research since water availability in the route can be an issue.
It was so much fun and such a cool place full of meadows, bogs, praire, bluffs, and so much wild life
Many thanks to my friend Ben, the map nerd who took ownership of planning the route based on the original SCC, you can find his final version of the route here https://ridewithgps.co… (not exactly the same as what we did but better and with a lot less "there should be a road here" moments)

Looks awesome! Last year I did this starting on the Elroy-Sparta and it was a great experience!
