Projects for the next few years are pretty numerous - Mormon Coulee and Dutch Creek this year and probably Bostwick Creek (all in La Crosse County) and a big project on Mill Creek (Richland County) next year. If the hydrology study gets done and approved, the West Fork of the Kickapoo around Bloomingdale is a 2025 project as well. Also working with the Mississippi Valley Conservancy on their Plum Creek property - which could be as early as a 2025 project.

Additionally, we host STREAM Girls and pay to stock rainbow trout for Coon Creek Trout Fest.

They are not - the WDNR has a pretty long history of successfully completing projects in the Coulee Region.

LUNKERS are a lot less common but that's largely because they've not held up in a lot of places - particularly the steeper reaches.

I know we used quite a few on a project a few years ago but that was largely because the pasture was wide open there was no source of wood. And we recently put a few into the West Fork at the Sports Club grounds.

They have their place but I think that place has gotten smaller for good reason.
