This picture was taken from the Tour Boat on the Wisconsin River in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. This photo was taken during the return trip from the cruise. The Dells were formed during the last ice age some 15,000 years ago. Although the Dells were never covered by glacier ice sheets, the ice from the melting glacier formed what was called Glacial Lake Wisconsin. In addition some of this glacier created an ice dam that caused the water to rise as deep as 150 feet. Eventually the glacier ice dam melted unleashing a catastrophic flood that carved out narrow gorges and unique rock formations of sandstone seen in the photo. One has to love what nature can do.
very beautiful....
