Trip Overview

In at Riverfront Park on S. River Road, and out at Goeden County Park. on County Road M. Trip took 2 hr. 45 min. usgs.gov at Milwaukee River in Cedarburg, water flow at 800 cfps. Water level looked average to high. We also had good current to help us along. Bottom of the river is muddy. The river is brown and when the river is about 3 feet deep we could not see bottom. I am custume to less weeds in a river so I think there were lots of weeds. When the water level is lower there might be an weed issue? Googles maps show green in the water and that would be weeds. Did not have to portage around trees for this trip
