This trip is tranquil and unspoiled by development. There is always an opportunity to see wildlife.
Fishing is usually good.
A good portion of this route passes through the historic Lac du Flambeau Indian Reservation. The usual put-in is below the outlet of Flambeau Lake. Other put-in points can be made at either of the two town road bridges or at the State Hwy. Putting in at the Hwy. 182 bridge makes a fine half-day paddle to Murray's Landing.
