The River that Became a Lake – Devil’s Lake State Park

The Baraboo Bluffs is a great study of geologic processes, from the formation of ancient quartzite, uplift of the Baraboo Range, significant river erosion and finally glacial sculpting and the deposit of terminal moraines, all of which created the setting for this view from the East Bluff Trail – Devil’s Lake State Park. I liked the blend of the few remaining oak leaves above, the bare birch trees below, and a few pine trees on either side. It naturally framed the lake with the lower autumn sun reflecting off the water. In my mind it made for a very tranquil scene. (Baraboo, Wisconsin)
