Explore Devil’s Lake with the naturalist and uncover the hidden gems and overlooked forests and fields in the park. These guided hikes will happen each Saturday morning during the month of March. Each walk will last 2 to 2 ½ hours and the terrain will vary each week from easy to difficult.
This week’s walk will be through Steinke Basin up to the top of the East Bluff. This is a moderate to difficult walk up the bluff from Steinke Basin. Once on top of the east bluff, the trail is paved with some short stone stairways. March weather can vary and so can the trail conditions, so be prepared for ice, snow, and mud.
Time: 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Where: Meet at the Steinke Basin Parking Lot
Who? Best for teenagers and adults

For nearly 2 decades the Skillet Creek blog has focused on 3 main goals; To inspire you to visit and explore the Devil’s Lake region, to help you get the most your visit by sharing tips, events, and other helpful information. Lastly to advocate for our environment & wildlife and talk about how we can keep our natural areas amazing now and into the future! That last goal can sometimes cause controversy, but it’s the only way we can accomplish the first two. – Derrick Mayoleth, Owner.
