I had a great time at this Fish
Hatchery (grins) Honestly! This would be a great place to winter
hunt at.. our State Fish Hatchery 'Rangers' are Rob Lauer and Jim
Martin. Dec 2005 update: Ranger Jim retired, and Rob was
transfered. Ranger on site is Steve, he knows of the cache
They were selectively picking through fertile eggs when I
arrived and Rob gave me a mini tour of the back woods. I enjoyed
explaining Geocaching to him and found a very interesting place to
stash our cache..
This is geared to a family hunt and those that love fish
(grins)... That HUGE circular container (in the woods) was used in
a Devil's Lake study a few years back.
Enjoy!

Other points of interest: * At N43 53.150 W89 29.620 are a few
surprises.. One is that this building (now Kravick Realty) use to
make wooden propellers for the war during 1941-1945. Open 9-5
M-Sat. * Between 1908 - 1942, Sears sold 100,000 mail order homes.
One of these came to Marquette County in 1909. Ordered by Sam
McWilliams. He built it for his Irish bride. He opted to side it in
brick. *During the potato famine in Ireland.. many emigrated to the
USA.. one moved to this area.. 'Gramdma Jane'. Jane was addicted to
tea and legend says that before birthing her 8th child (born in
1854), she carried her small son, John, on her back and walked 10
miles through the woods and along Indian trails to Packwaukee to
buy her 'tay and sugar'. (she'd make a grand geocacher today)
