NEW!! Devil's Lake (Summer 2008)
As you may have heard the upper Midwest has taken quite a hit as far as flooding and heavy rains in the past few weeks. At one point, our main climbing area here, Devils Lake State Park was closed for more than a week due to high standing water at the North and South Shore park entrances, barring any entrance to the park or climbing access. The park has since opened, but there is extensive damage to the park facilities and the trails leading to the climbing areas. On July 26th, The Chicago Mountaineering Club along with the park management will sponsor a volunteer weekend to help clean up some of the damage and open up some more of the trails in the park.
