To better understand and protect the health of Lake Wissota, the Lake Wissota Stewardship Project (LWSP) has placed fixed point photo stations around the lake. These stations are simple, accessible tools that allow anyone with a smartphone to contribute to an ongoing visual record of the lake’s condition.
Each station includes a phone stand so visitors can capture the same view over time. By submitting your photo online, you help build a “story map” that tracks how the lake changes, season by season and year by year.

By comparing images taken from the same location, conservationists and community members can better understand trends and measure the impact of ongoing conservation efforts.
