Conical Mound on the Crest of the Dividing Ridge

A horse grazes near Native American burial mounds on the Dividing Ridge, a recessional moraine, between Lakes Monona and Wingra in Madison, Wisconsin. The mounds, and the ridge they stood on, were subsequently quarried away by gravel miners. Part of the area became South Park Street. |
