Lake Water Levels

A message from Tyler Gruetzmacher, Barron County Conservationist

Good afternoon,

As we head into the July 4 weekend, some of the lakes in the area are experiencing high water levels due to the recent rains.

On the lakes with dams, we have been working to clear the excess, but the watersheds are continuing to contribute water that needs to work through the system.

If you are on a lake with highwater, please be mindful of the wake you are producing as it can cause erosion on the shorelines.

Have a Happy and Safe Fourth of July weekend, and life jackets are still a good idea.
