Namekagon Dam to Hayward Landing

Namekagon River Map 1:

Native brook trout are found in the colder waters of the upper Namekagon River.

In This Stretch

• The first ten miles of this stretch are isolat-

ed. Expect numerous beaver dams, downed trees, and three low bridges. Water levels can be extremely low and impassable dur-ing dry conditions.

• From Phillipi Landing to Cable Wayside, water levels tend to be slightly better.

• At the old Phipps Dam site, you can usually run the rapids or look for the portage on the right.

• From Trout Run Landing to Hospital Road you may encounter large groups of people on tubes.

• Hayward Lake is large and open, making paddling difficult during a strong headwind. You must portage the Hayward Dam.
