About the bark river


The Bark River is a 70-mile-long river that runs through Wisconsin, USA. It is a tributary of the Rock River, which eventually flows into the Mississippi River. The river's name comes from the bark of trees that was used to make canoes by Native Americans. The river has a rich history and was used for transportation and logging in the past. Today, the river is used for recreation and water supply. The river has several reservoirs and dams, including the Lower and Upper Nemahbin Lakes, Lower and Upper Nashotah Lakes, and the Lulu Lake Preserve. These reservoirs and dams are used for flood control and water supply. The river is also used for fishing and boating, while nearby agricultural land is irrigated using water from the river.
