Great photo and thanks for posting. If I may offer a correction to your title for the photo - that is not "Cambrian Rock." but rather it's "Chamberlin Rock" and the actual rock happens to be "pre-Cambrian." The plaque on the boulder "commemerates the services to Wisconsin of Thomas Chrowder Chamberlin" a State Geologist and a President of the University of Wisconsin in the 1800s. See http://www.hmdb.org/marker.asp?marker=32249
