Canoeing the Plover River, Wisconsin

Beginning as a tiny rivulet a few miles south of Antigo, the Plover flows to the southwest through an entirely rural environment until it joins the Wisconsin River at Stevens Point. For devotees of little rivers, the Plover is a wonderful stream for a relaxing quietwater trip. Never very dramatic, it offers varied settings that include gentle riffles, wooded bluffs, lowland hardwood forest, some marshy vegetation, and almost unbroken tranquility. The river is clean and clear with a slightly copperish tint.
