Caught the Bug
Practicing some social distancing with a hike at Long Lake State Park in Dundee Wisconsin. Most of the small glacial kettle lakes are still iced over:

Ascending Dundee Mountain which at 250’ is hardly a mountain, but a large Kame left by the melting glacier:



Long Lake in the distance:

From the summit:


Found some snow and ice on the lower part of the loop:


These erratics were loaded with marine fossils. According to my Geologist Brother-in-law this is from a silurian reef around 430 million years old:

Syringopora Coral:

Chain Coral, Halysites

Solitary Rugose Coral:

White Kame:

Back at Long Lake, still iced over, but getting thin. No more ice fishing for the season:

Oscar waiting patiently:

Looking good old friend:
