Grandad Bluff
Grandad Bluff (also Granddad Bluff) is a mesa on the east side of La Crosse, Wisconsin. It is approximately 590 feet above the surrounding land and 1183 feet (361 m) above sea level. Bliss Road provides access to the bluff.
A park shelter in a fenced-off area atop the bluff provides visitors with a view of La Crosse. It contains a panoramic photo of La Crosse taken in 2004, with annotations of La Crosse landmarks. Locations visible from the bluff include the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse, the Mississippi River, bluffs in Minnesota, and Interstate 90.〔(City of La Crosse, WI - Official Website - Grandad Park )〕
==Geology==
The landscape has a geomorphically young appearance because of its Pleistocene history. The Mississippi River probably did not occupy this course before the Pleistocene. The bluffs along this portion of the Mississippi River are Prairie du Chien dolostone capping Cambrian sandstone. Grandad Bluff is a classic mesa, as are all the bluffs along the river.〔(Granddad Bluff ); Steven Dutch, Natural and Applied Sciences, University of Wisconsin - Green Bay; September 9, 2005; Retrieved October 26, 2007〕
