WIND RIVER

The Wind River is a minor tributary of the Mississippi River in western Wisconsin in the United States. It flows for its entire 9.0-mile (14.5 km) length in western Pierce County. It rises in the town of Trimbelle and flows southward through the towns of Oak Grove and Diamond Bluff. Wind River joins the Mississippi near the unincorporated community of Diamond Bluff, which is within the larger jurisdiction (the town). ~wikipedia

I’ve driven past Wind River on Highway 35 thousands of times and never really gave it much thought. It’s rather small and not particularly picturesque from the the highway. You can bet a better look at in along 1005th Street. The view from the air provides an entirely different perspective. There are so many of these little pristine spring-fed streams and rivers feeding into the mighty Mississippi.
