I'm loving my Thru-Hike of the Ice Age Trail! Instagram @thedosukinuta
Sweet Calming
11/07/21. Hiking the well maintained Ice Age Trail in this area marked with yellow spots, the eye-opening vast prairie surrounding with the colorful autumn forests along the remote horizon, will relax your stressed nerves in a few miles walking. Watching the clouds moving slowly in the blue sky, breathing deeply the sweet smell of the grass and leaves, your mind could be meltdown with the scenic beauty of nature quickly. The Brady's Rocks can be accessed by the connecting path marked with white spots. The Ice Age path is easy for most hikers, but the loop path about half mile to Brady's Rocks may need a little more efforts. Go through the video "Brady' Rocks" on Youtube "Sweet Calming" channel to determine if that is suitable for you. There are two near by parking lots along the Highway 67.

From this Ice Age Trail link, biking is only permitted if the trail coincides with a state bike trail. Otherwise its foot traffic only. https://www.iceagetrail.org/ice-age-trail/
Yes, dogs are allowed if they are leashed. No garbage or water at the trailheads right now though, so you'll have to pack water and pack out waste.
Can not see the question
I would recommend calling the police in Eagle and asking. You should also have a state park sticker. I've heard of people leaving notes and parking overnight at certain trailheads. I am not sure about this one. You can check the ice age website map and see if anyone has left a note. Please note: you have to stay in designated areas on this trail. Much of the land is private or not approved for camping. (Yes, it's a pain)
There is a website with a map that is more reliable than Google maps. Please look here: https://www.iceagetrail.org/
You can also purchase an annual pass at any WI DNR service center.
The Ice Age Trail was established by Act of Congress in 1980, in large part as a result of the efforts of Wisconsin Congressman Henry S. Reuss, who in 1976 authored the book On the Trail of the Ice Age. The trail's origins, however, date to the 1950s with the dream of Milwaukee native Ray Zillmer, who in 1958 founded the Ice Age Park & Trail Foundation (now the Ice Age Trail Alliance, Inc.) with the goal of establishing a National Park in Wisconsin running the route of the last glaciation.[9] According to Reuss's book, the first person to backpack the entire length of the Ice Age Trail was 20-year-old James J. Staudacher of Shorewood, Wisconsin during the summer of 1979.
Many of the access points are DNR/State parking lots which require a fee to park. $8 daily (WI plates); $11 daily (out of state plates) You can self register at the lots using the self-pay envelopes or annual pass is $28 (WI plates); $38 (out of state plates). The annual passes allow you to park on State property anywhere in the state until Dec 31, 2109. Enjoy!✌
You would be best served by calling the forest center office during the day and making your request that way. The DNR does not monitor Google Questions.
