River Description

High water alternative run in the area of the popular Black River at Hatfield.

Morrison Creek passes through Ho-Chunk (Winnebago) tribal territory. Be aware that this may affect legality of paddling.

Groups often look at a double or triple (combining it with runs on Robinson Creek and/or Halls (Stockwell) Creek) since these three streams are quite similar in location (Black River Falls area) and drainage areas (80-90 square miles).

Thia was a good class 3ish run at 1000 CFS on the approximate guage.   The best section was between cemetary road until just after county highway K road.

A very nice spring run with really good scenery and a couple rapids that with the right amount of water are quite fun. This spring run should be watched as it is definitely worth it. WR
