Wildcat Creek - W.Howard Ave. to Kulwicki Park (1.2-1.5 miles) (WI)
Approximate - nearest available gauge. Use as general reference only.
A better put-in is the dead-end stub of 122nd Street.
DO NOT WALK DUE NORTH TO THE CREEK! THAT IS PRIVATE PROPERTY!
(Potential disputes regarding unmarked/indistict public vs private property are a reason for not listing this as the primary put-in site.)
From the end of 122nd St., a narrow strip of City of Greenfield property flanks a paved path. At a fire hydrant (even with the corner of the house there), city property extends north to the confluence of two branches of the creek. This confluence adds considerably to the flow, compared to the listed upper put-in. From here to Beloit Road, most of the land along the creek is designated as "Wildcat Creek Nature Corridor".
At this confluence, a major zig-zag in this very narrow creek is very likely to catch wood, and (even lacking wood) will take major skills to successfully navigate.
We highly recommend scouting this location before putting in at the upstream site!
