Parfrey’s Glen
Yesterday I visited Parfrey’s Glen, a State Natural Area close to Devil’s Lake State Park.
Parfrey’s Glen is a small but dramatic gorge, created by centuries of a creek carving its way through the area’s sandstone.
The very first of Wisconsin’s State Natural Areas, Parfrey’s Glen was designated so in 1952.
At the end of the trail, a small waterfall. This little creek caused all this?

Great photos! You new camera is working well, but it can’t do it without the photographer. You have an excellent eye for what makes a good photo. I especially liked the contrast between what was in the shadows and what was in the light. Well done. enjoyable. It’s been a couple of years since
we’ve been to Parfrey’s.

It looks like a very interesting place. I can’t remember our being there and will have to ask Dad. I remember Natural Bridge State Park which is in that part of WI but don’t remember the Glen.
We had a nice visit with Barb and Dennis. His two youngest girls were there and Dennis’ father joined us in the afternoon as one of the girls’ has a birthday this week {as does Adam}.
Barb sent greetings. We had an early supper {spaghetti and linguini and birthday cake. We left about 5 and got home about 8:30. The traffic was bad in the morning and not good in the evening either ….lots of trucks.
Neat pictures. We’ll have to go there again!
