Devils Lake State Park

Devils Lake is Wisconsins climbing Mecca. Hundreds of climbers flock to this place almost every weekend during the summer. Over-crowding is a problem in some of the main areas (East Bluff for example). If you should choose to go off in a different direction than most people, you could easily find more than enough climbing in an uncrowded area.
I wanted to put together a really good page for Devils Lake due to the fact that so many people have such fond memeories from there. For many people it was just a place to get away from the city scene and enjoy nature. But, for others (Like me) It was a place that conjured up dreams of scaling sheer rock faces. For me it finally convinced me to buy some gear and do a little climbing. I hope that it can bring back some memories! This page is dedicated to the DLFA.
