Since 1910 the Lighthouse has been both a beacon and landmark. It became a state park in 1971.
The sill is part of the earth's Precambrian history and is related
to the rocks exposed throughout the area.
The Duluth Complex is made up of many intrusive events,
hot magma upwelling in cracks and weak areas of existing volcanic
bedrock. The result is a very hard rock that has withstood the
ravages of storms and glaciers to give us the beauty of
Split Rock Lighthouse State Park.
in deep, green forests; on shores of sand:
and when our time on earth is through
in heaven, too, you will have my hand.
