Geologic Map of the Durwards Glen 7.5-Minute Quadrangle, Columbia and Sauk Counties, Wisconsin
The Durwards Glen 7.5-minute quadrangle map is located in Columbia and Sauk counties, southeast of the city of Baraboo. This geologic map includes Precambrian through Quaternary units. New mapping has focused on subdividing the Baraboo Quartzite into four separate members and delineating Quaternary deposits in greater detail than prior work.-

The Driftless Area: The extent of unglaciated and similar terrains in Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, and Minnesota
The Driftless Area of southwestern Wisconsin and northwestern Illinois got its name from the lack of glacial sediment ("drift") covering the landscape. The surficial geology and topography of the Driftless Area are thus distinct from the surrounding region where multiple phases of glaciation left their mark. This pamphlet, a collaborative effort between...-

The Ice Age Geology of Devils Lake State Park
Devils Lake State Park is a place of striking geologic contrasts, where some of the oldest rock exposed in southern Wisconsin lies next to some of the youngest geologic materials in the state. The purple rock (called Baraboo quartzite) in the walls of Devils Lake gorge is more than 1.7 billion years old; the glacially deposited ridges that block both ends...-
