History

Constructed during the lumber boom of the 1800s, the dam would open during the spring and logs were transported down the river. In 1992, the dam underwent renovation with assistance from multiple sources, including the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest and the historical society of Price County, Wisconsin.[2]
