Dam you![edit]

Just out of curiosity, did the dam get built? EEng (talk) 04:36, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

=============[edit]

If you use Acme Maper 2.0 (and probably (Google maps as well, though I did not search them) you will see TWO roads that cross 'pond creek' that end up in cemeteries(coincidence) - one by the high school HARTFORD 'Pleasant Hill cemetery' and one south quite a ways 'Bowe Cemice,cemetery' just south of Saylesville, Wi. No evidence of a pond being seen, either USGS TOPO 25 or satellite. In fairness the one that goes to the Pleasant Hill is at the end of a road 60. Which would make the road just south of 60 the road referred to in the road which runs from Saylesville to the cemetery "and called the cemetery road' . What **I** Find interesting is in just about 100 years the three town mentioned has 'sparse population'-- yet when plotted on a map seem to VERY close to Hardford (hardly 'sparsely occupied') and 'Dorrance Center' (Green Bay) again hardly 'sparcely populated, even 100 years ago; if the towns are plotted on a map they will make up a quite large area within reach of many manufacturing centers of the day and currently. I see *NO* TOPO mark of an earth or concert anchored damn, NOR do I see any outline of any kind of wash, or pond of ANY kind (from dry/intermittent to damp/intermittent) that surounds the dams which may be in place today, running under the road way, though USGS maps so now show a dam forming the foundation of any of the roads (Acme maper 2.0) My bet is that the damns were NOT built according the USGS maps of the area. Also I call into question the purpose of First Geological Report since it seems to create a policy of 'open daming' of the Pond Stream (which turns, to the north into Butler and Rubicon Creeks. It is of side interest that Jimmy Hofa's Grave has been found at N 44.62944 W 88.33279 with a road named after him as well.Pgalioni (talk) 00:33, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This stream (Pond Creek) is in Pennsylvania, not Wisconsin. It's a tributary of Little Wapwallopen Creek. --Jakob (talk) 15:37, 11 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
