This is the very popular picnic area at Devil’s Lake State Park near Baraboo, Wisconsin. Today there are plenty of picnic tables available with a great view of the lake. These tables are usually at a premium. If you want to picnic here in July or August, you must set up your area at dawn.
Of course, if you’d prefer picnicking in December and don’t mind air temps about 7˚F or the wind chill below 20˚, then getting a table is no problem.
Enjoy.


Bitter cold!!!! The tables remind me of mushrooms popping up out of the snow. Very nice!!!

Ha. Brrr, looks so cold. I need to remember not to feel as cold as I do when it’s 15 degrees at night here.

Montucky, of course there will be cold cuts, and iced drinks, too.

Hey look on the positive side – no ants or mosquittos and your beer doesn’t get warm.
