Silver Creek on South Post is shown Jan. 2, 2021, at Fort McCoy, Wis.
This area of the creek had a dam removed in 2017 by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources in coordination with the Directorate of Public Works Environmental Division Natural Resources Branch at Fort McCoy.
The West Silver Wetland Dam, located on Fort McCoy's South Post near the Sparta-Fort McCoy Airport, had been in place on Silver Creek since 1952 and now is removed.
Silver Creek is one of many trout streams on Fort McCoy.
Fort McCoy’s motto is to be the “Total Force Training Center.”
Located in the heart of the upper Midwest, Fort McCoy is the only U.S. Army installation in Wisconsin.
The installation has provided support and facilities for the field and classroom training of more than 100,000 military personnel from all services nearly every year since 1984.
