Fox River

The Fox River is a scenic waterway that flows through parts of Illinois and Wisconsin. It originates in Wisconsin and travels south, passing through communities like Green Bay and Ottawa before joining the Illinois River. The river is about 200 miles long and supports a variety of wildlife, recreational activities, and local economies. It also plays a vital role in regional ecosystems, providing habitat for fish and other aquatic life. Historically, it was important for transportation and industry, especially during the logging and paper eras, but today it is valued primarily for recreation, water quality, and environmental conservation.
