The park essentially consists of the Outlet Mound and an historical Marker commemorating it.

Text from the marker reads:
“The largest of nineteen conical, oval and linear mounds once located in this vicinity, the Outlet Mound was constructed as a burial place by Woodland Indians about 2,000 years ago. It was saved from destruction by the Wisconsin Archeological Society and local citizens in 1944 and donated to the city of Monona."
