    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.
