Johnson Falls Flowage on Peshtigo River – Sunday, June 8 Temp 68º, overcast, threat of thunderstorms; 50

minutes on water. We paddled upstream to the High Falls Dam (and

back). We saw an eagle, a heron, and a small mammal

swimming in the water. The Wixoms arrived late and paddled downstream

toward the Johnson Falls Dam (and back). Mike paddled downstream to meet them.

Rain began just as we packed up our boats. We went to the Peshtigo River Resort for supper. It is

located on the Peshtigo River, just downstream from the Caldron Falls Dam; it has a beautiful view of the river, and has a salad bar on an old boat.
