Bruce Foster on the Dams in the Kinnickinnic River - 2004

“Now we are down to just two dams on the Kinnickinnic, and maybe in a few years the Kinnickinnic again will be a free flowing river. And not have these man-made dams, which are no longer necessary. They have a use, but they’re not necessary.” “This canyon (of the South Fork, below the Swinging Bridge) is looking like the Kinnickinnic Canyon would look like if the mill pond wasn’t there. You’d see this beautiful rock set of falls, one after another all the way down through the center of the City of River Falls. People can’t imagine not having the mill pond to look at. But the mill pond is something that is man-made, and may have reached it’s usefulness.” “To do the right thing, at the right time, is a wonderful thing. Great things aren’t done by great people, they are done by ordinary people given an opportunity. Circumstances work out, and they have the vision, to want something better to be done.” Bruce Foster (1936-2007), on the Dams of the Kinnickinnic River - 2004 #FreeTheKinni
