WN@TL - The Precambrian Geology of the Baraboo Hills. Esther Stewart. 2019.03.27
This week (March 27) Esther Stewart of the Wisconsin Geologic & Natural History Survey shares her newest insights into some of Wisconsin’s oldest rocks. The title of her presentation is The Precambrian Geology of the Baraboo Hills. It’s a story of reading the deep-time sedimentary record and how old mine records and outcrops reveal a history of ancient rivers, oceans, and faulting in Wisconsin.
Here’s how Esther describes her talk:
The Paleoproterozoic (less than 1.7 billion-years old) Baraboo Quartzite is present in the Baraboo Hills, Wisconsin, USA. It is one of several isolated quartzite outcrops across the southern Lake Superior region known as the Baraboo interval quartzites, and these rocks record a history of sedimentary basin development and regional deformation along the south-central Laurentian margin.
New Precambrian geologic mapping focused on the core of the Baraboo syncline, Sauk County combined with regional subsurface bedrock geologic mapping of Dodge County, WI refines the regional Precambrian stratigraphy of southern Wisconsin, which has allowed identification and mapping of regional faults.
Development of new geologic maps and cross-sections of southern Wisconsin’s Paleozoic and Precambrian bedrock geology involves field mapping, outcrop characterization, collection of new bedrock drill core, and discovery and integration of historic mining maps, drill records, and drill core. Revision of Precambrian stratigraphy and structure provides new constraint on the age and depositional setting of a young (less than 1.8 Ga) iron formation, which has implications for interpretations related to protracted ocean oxygenation and the evolution of life. Of more immediate practicality, mapping demonstrates that Paleozoic fold axes overlie Precambrian faults.
About the Speaker:
Esther Stewart has served as Precambrian geologist for the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey since 2013. Prior to that, she worked as a petroleum geologist for several years in Houston, Texas. She holds a master’s degree from Idaho State University.

Explore Wisconsin's State Natural Areas
State Natural Areas protect the best remaining examples of Wisconsin's native landscapes -- its prairies, forests, and wetlands -- and habitat for rare plants and animals. They are open to the public for a variety of uses, including hiking, nature study, hunting and fishing.
The Baraboo Beast
We were watching some deer by the woods and my mom went to get the flip but spooked them when she came out. we were just filming the area when we saw it. I did some background research and found out that some beast boy had run away from the ringling brothers circus. is this the boy maybe.

Natural Bridge - Wisconsin attraction
this sandstone bridge formation is located in Natural Bridge State Park in Wisconsin... video and pictures shot with Galaxy S4... it's all i had on me...
Natural Bridge State Park is a 530-acre (214 ha) state park of Wisconsin, United States, featuring Wisconsin's largest natural arch. Directly beneath the arch is the Raddatz Rockshelter, a rock shelter once used by Paleo-Indians and now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The park is located southwest of Baraboo between the unincorporated communities of Leland and Denzer, in the town of Honey Creek.
The park is on the edge of the Baraboo Range in an unglaciated Driftless Area of south-central Wisconsin. Outcrops of sandstone deposited 1.6 billion years ago jut out of the tops of these hills.
The arch and rock shelter have been weathered out of one such outcropping. The top of the arch is 35 feet (11 m) above the ground. The arch opening is 25 feet (7.6 m) wide and 15 feet (4.6 m) high. The rock shelter is 60 feet (18 m) wide and 30 feet (9.1 m) deep.
The park's hills are forested with oak and other hardwoods. Some ridge tops bear small prairie remnants with grasses and cactus. Around the outcrop walls grow ferns such as the walking fern (Asplenium rhizophyllum), slender lip fern (Cheilanthes feei) and the rare purple cliffbrake (Pellaea atropurpurea). The shade of the rock faces also supports Solidago sciaphila, a rare goldenrod.
An archaeological excavation of the rock shelter was conducted in 1957 by Warren L. Wittry of the Wisconsin Historical Society. His team found evidence of human use over a long time period. The remains of 50 vertebrate and 15 mollusc species were identified. The oldest artifacts were pieces of charred wood, presumably from fire pits, which were dated to between 9000 and 8000 BCE. This would make it the oldest documented site of human occupation in the upper Midwest.[2] There were also artifacts such as antler-scrapers dating back to six to seven thousand years ago. Evidence indicates that the shelter was used only periodically at first, perhaps as a hunting or seasonal camp. Later it was inhabited year-round.
The natural bridge has been a tourist attraction for modern visitors since 1870. The state park was established in 1972, and the following year 60 acres (24 ha) centered on the arch were given a further level of protection as Natural Bridge and Rockshelter State Natural Area. In 1978 the Raddatz Rockshelter was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Natural Bridge State Park is open year-round but unstaffed. Visitors needing a parking pass for their vehicle must purchase one from a self-registration stand. Amenities at the park are limited to picnic tables and restrooms. There is no overnight camping.
There are two trails in the park, totalling about 3.5 miles (5.6 km). The arch and rock shelter are short distance up the Indian Moccasin Nature Trail, which then loops further through the wooded hills. Signs along the trail interpret the medicinal uses of many native plants. The longer Whitetail Hiking Trail leads across the highway to the less-used southern half of the park.
The southern portion of the park is open for hunting during parts of autumn.

Around the Corner with John McGivern | Program | West Bend (#506)
[Latest Airdate: October 25, 2018]
[Original Airdate: February 11, 2016]
Wow! West Bend totally surprised us. Yes, we know it's only an hour northwest of Milwaukee, but we didn't know that this city has it all - and then some.
West Bend is home to some true Wisconsin treasures. Where else are you going to find a fire fighting apparatus collection, a private zoo complete with celebrity bears named Lewis and Clark AND world class trombone musicians and craftsmen that will show you how they make trombones?
John made some treasured memories too as he made soap, pickled watermelon rinds (and ate them, too --- truly yummy!), nosed around a fantastic downtown residence that used to be a hardware store and took orders at the local custard and burger shop. The girls at A Conversation Piece really got him talking, and the gigantic painting at the spectacular Museum of Wisconsin Art left him speechless.
As John said, we're so glad that West Bend is close to Milwaukee because we love West Bend!

Wisconsin Under the Sea: Life in Wisconsin during the Early Paleozoic
Travel back in time with UW-Richland geologist Dr. Norlene Emerson as she describes the watery world of Wisconsin during the early Paleozoic. Life in Wisconsin roughly 545-440 million years ago was very different from what we see today. At that time, Wisconsin was located in the southern hemisphere and was flooded by a warm, shallow, tropical sea. In small isolated areas where land was exposed above sea level, no life existed. While, on the other hand, life was thriving under the sea.
A Walk Around The Wisconsin Dells
Wisconsin Dells is a city in south-central Wisconsin, with a population of 2,678 people as of the 2010 census. It straddles four counties: Adams, Columbia, Juneau, and Sauk. The city takes its name from the Dells of the Wisconsin River, a scenic, glacially formed gorge that features striking sandstone formations along the banks of the Wisconsin River. Together with the nearby village of Lake Delton, the city forms an area known as the Dells, a popular Midwestern tourist destination.
Because of the scenery provided by the dells of the Wisconsin River, Kilbourn City quickly became a popular travel destination in the Midwest. In 1856, Leroy Gates began taking tourists on boat tours of the Wisconsin Dells. These tours were given using wooden rowboats until 1873 when the first steamboat, the Modocawanda, was used. In 1875, early landscape photographer H. H. Bennett established a studio in the city and took many photos of the sandstone formations in the dells, including stereoscopic views. Prints of these photographs were distributed across the United States, further enhancing the status of Kilbourn City as a destination for sightseers. Taking advantage of this, Bennett began offering to take souvenir pictures of visitors to the dells, becoming one of the first to capitalize on the area's burgeoning tourist trade. Today, the H. H. Bennett Studio is a historic site operated by the Wisconsin Historical Society.
The Dells region remained primarily a place for sightseers to escape the bustle of the city for many decades. By 1894, distillate-powered tour boats began to be used. In 1908, the Kilbourn Dam was installed by what is now Alliant Energy, over the protests of people such as H. H. Bennett, separating the Dells into the Upper and Lower Dells.
Since the time of LeRoy Gates, the Dells Boat Tours have gone through many operators. Some of the previous companies were The Riverview Boat Line, the Olson Boat Line, the Dells Boat Company, the Consolidated Boat Company, and the Silver Dollar Boat Line.
A few other events of interest took place during this time, including the June 16, 1911 impact of a 772-gram stony meteorite in rural Columbia County near the city, damaging a barn.
