Devils Island (Wisconsin)

The island is located in western Lake Superior off the Bayfield Peninsula, is centered at approximately 47°04'16.50" N 90°43'36.33" W and has a maximum elevation of 652' above sea level.

Governor Fifield did not specify his source of information for this claim, and some modern Native scholars question the accuracy of this explanation.

When surf on the lake is heavy, the waves thunder and boom in the island's extensive sea caves.

The island is perhaps most visited for the dramatic rock formations and sea caves that wrap around its northern shore.

The undulating of the climate over about a million year period laid a sandstone crust that is about 1800 feet thick.

Accompanied by the volunteer, visitors may climb the tower, and go inside the original keeper's quarters, built in 1894.
