Meanders (Hwy.100/Mayfair Road)
Other43.04839, -88.04718

Description
An MMSD project (many years back) removed the cement from the next half-mile of the creek. Flood plains were laid back, and the channel was meandered through broad meadowland. At the 'best' higher flows, water will fill the wider engineered floodplain area here, flowing through (and matting down) the taller grasses and other plants, sometimes allowing one to cut off a few of the meanders. (As this area is being populated with more and larger trees, shrubs, and taller grasses, it has become less simple to cut off the meanders.)
At minimal flows, random rocks litter the channel in a few places (particularly toward the end), but they don't create any interesting features at boatable flows.
