Caption: A cyclist passes by an ancient goose-shaped Indian effigy mound built by Woodland culture Indians about 1,000 years ago, one of a group of four mounds between the Natatorium and the Howard Temin Lakeshore Path. The four remaining sets of mounds on campus, including those near Willow Creek, were likely built by ancestors of the present-day Ho-Chunk tribe who inhabited the region for 10,000 years.
