Sad news today. Former Devil's Lake State Park Naturalist and author Ken Lange has passed…
Devil’s Lake State Park has a bright new informational sign on the north shore in front of the visitor information office. The sign hopefully will make it easier to let visitors know what’s going on along with any other important information when they visit the park. What do you think of it?
I have already seen mixed responses on social media. Bright signs and nature experiences, never go quite hand-in-hand! That said, I can say that getting information out to visitors is important as well. Let us know what you think below or join the conversation on Facebook or Twitter.
For nearly 2 decades the Skillet Creek blog has focused on 3 main goals; To inspire you to visit and explore the Devil’s Lake region, to help you get the most your visit by sharing tips, events, and other helpful information. Lastly to advocate for our environment & wildlife and talk about how we can keep our natural areas amazing now and into the future! That last goal can sometimes cause controversy, but it’s the only way we can accomplish the first two. – Derrick Mayoleth, Owner.

Correct. Bright lights do not blend in with nature. Why ask for comments after the fact that it’s a done deal? I guess the Dells hoopla is slowly drifting into our piece of the Driftless Glen.
Comments are simply about public discussion… This is not an “Official DNR” website and we don’t hold any sway (and are not told) when these projects come up. I always argue that the public should have more voice in how their parks are operated. To reach that goal, the public has to be better informed and encouraged to share their thoughts with each other (AND park officials). This is where real advocacy will start in public discussions. I’d encourage you to check out the discussion over on Facebook. Certainly, most folks see to agree with you about the light. https://www.facebook.com/SkilletCreek/posts/10159547699718236
