About the crow river
The Crow River is a tributary of the Mississippi River that flows through central Minnesota. It stretches for 125 miles and has a rich history dating back to the Native American settlement. The hydrology of the river is characterized by a mix of slow-moving pools and fast-moving rapids. Three main reservoirs/dams have been built along the river: the Lake Minnetonka Dam, the Lake Rebecca Dam, and the Lake Lillian Dam. These reservoirs provide flood control, hydroelectric power, and recreational opportunities such as fishing, boating, and swimming. The river also plays an important role in agriculture, providing irrigation water and fertile land for farming. Overall, the Crow River is a vital resource for the communities it flows through, offering both recreational and practical benefits.
