About this river

Tomorrow River

The Tomorrow River is a 63-mile-long tributary of the Wisconsin River that flows through central Wisconsin. It was named by early French explorers who believed that it would lead them to the Mississippi River the next day. The Tomorrow River is fed by several small streams and is known for its clear waters and diverse aquatic life. The river has several reservoirs, including the Lake Emily and Lake George reservoirs, which are used for recreational purposes such as boating, fishing, and swimming. The Tomorrow River also has a history of agriculture and was once used for logging. There are several dams on the river, including the Big Falls Dam and the Weyauwega Dam, which were built for hydroelectric power generation. Today, the Tomorrow River is an important resource for local communities, providing water for agriculture and industry, as well as outdoor recreation opportunities.
