Limnology Center Overlooking Lake Mendota

Limnology Center Overlooking Lake Mendota | Photograph | Wisconsin Historical Society
View of a corner of the Limnology Center on the shoreline of Lake Mendota. The building overhang is shading a walkway along the shore. A memorial stone and plaque for John "Vietnam" Nguyen sits to the left of the railing on the snowy shoreline, along with a bouquet of flowers. Snow blowing across the lake partially obscures Picnic Point in the far distance.
