The Jump River is a 77-mile-long tributary of the Chippewa River in Wisconsin, USA. It was historically used for logging, and the river's name reportedly comes from loggers jumping on the logs to move them downstream. The river supports a diverse range of aquatic life and is popular for fishing, kayaking, and canoeing. The river's hydrology has been altered by the construction of several dams and reservoirs, including the Lake Chippewa Flowage. The Flowage, created by the Winter Dam, is a popular recreational area for boating and fishing. The Jump River is also used for agricultural purposes, with several farms located along its banks.
