About the trempealeau river


The Trempealeau River runs for 116 miles through western Wisconsin, beginning near Osseo and flowing into the Mississippi River. It has a rich history, as it was an important transportation route for Native American tribes and early European settlers. The river's hydrology is varied, with many areas of rapids, quiet pools, and sandbars. There are several reservoirs and dams along the river, including the Upper and Lower Beaver Creek dams and the Neshonoc Dam. These dams provide hydroelectric power and recreational opportunities like swimming, boating, and fishing. Agriculture is a major use of the land surrounding the river, with crops like corn and soybeans grown in the fertile soil. The Trempealeau River is a valuable resource for both the environment and the communities it flows through.
