Lake St. Croix Overlook
Marker Number: Marker Composition: Text on Marker:
LAKE ST. CROIX
Waters from melting glaciers several thousand years ago carved deep valleys for the St. Croix and Mississippi Rivers. Deprived of the glacial waters the rivers were so reduced in volume and carrying power that they were unable to maintain clear channels. Eventually sediments of the Mississippi partially blocked the St. Croix outlet to form Lake St. Croix from Stillwater to Point Douglas.
