    Figure 6.2: Watersheds (HUC 10) and Sub‐Watersheds (HUC 12) of the Kickapoo River Region. 6‐2 1. OVERVIEW a) Physical Environment This region encompasses both the Kickapoo and La Crosse rivers with a long, large upland ridge running from Norwalk in La Crosse County, south‐southwest to Eastman in Crawford County. On either side of this ridge are numerous narrow hills and valleys that are home to countless headwater creeks. Fed by springs and seeps, these cold waters form some of the most popular trout angling streams in the Driftless Area. Much of the region is covered with deep loess deposits over bedrock (primarily dolostone, sandstone or shale). Soils are primarily silt loams. The region is home to many dry and wet cliffs. The valleys contain stream terraces and floodplains. Streams are high gradient with fast water flow in the headwaters transitioning to meandering low gradient segments as they move toward the Kickapoo and Mississippi Rivers. Groundwater is recharged directly through precipitation. This area has no natural lakes. Figure 6.3: Land cover of the Kickapoo River Region. b) Land Cover and Use The region’s most common land cover is upland forest which blankets most of the hillsides. Crop land is restricted to the uplands and valley floors. The broad, high ridge around Westby and Viroqua is the largest block of upland farmland in the region. The La Crosse River valley floor is also heavily farmed. Very little of the region is prime farmland. c) Terrestrial Habitats This region is especially noteworthy for its current opportunities for the management of big block forests and dry prairie/oak openings near the Mississippi and Kickapoo rivers as well as oak barrens and southern mesic forest in portions of Monroe County.

  • Kark's Canoeing and Kayaking Guide to 309 Wisconsin Streams
    Kark's Canoeing and Kayaking Guide to 309 Wisconsin Streams By Richard Kark May 2015 Introduction A Badger Stream Love Affair My fascination with rivers started near my hometown of Osage, Iowa on the Cedar River. High school buddies and I fished the river and canoe-camped along its lovely limestone bluffs. In 1969 I graduated from St. Olaf College in Minnesota and soon paddled my first Wisconsin stream. With my college sweetheart I spent three days and two nights canoe-camping from Taylors Falls to Stillwater on the St. Croix River. “Sweet Caroline” by Neil Diamond blared from our transistor radio as we floated this lovely stream which was designated a National Wild and Scenic River in 1968. Little did I know I would eventually explore more than 300 other Wisconsin streams. In the late 1970s I was preoccupied by my medical studies in Milwaukee but did find the time to explore some rivers. I recall canoeing the Oconto, Chippewa, Kickapoo, “Illinois Fox,” and West Twin Rivers during those years. Several of us traveled to the Peshtigo River and rafted “Roaring Rapids” with a commercial company. At the time I could not imagine riding this torrent in a canoe. We also rafted Piers Gorge on the Menomonee River. Our guide failed to avoid Volkswagen Rock over Mishicot Falls. We flipped and I experienced the second worst “swim” of my life. Was I deterred from whitewater? Just the opposite, it seems. By the late 1970s I was a practicing physician, but I found time for Wisconsin rivers. In 1979 I signed up for the tandem whitewater clinic run by the River Touring Section of the Sierra Club’s John Muir Chapter.
