Benefits of Fallen Trees to a Lake Ecosystem

DNR Document on the Benefit of Fallen Trees

Permits are not always necessarily for a tree drop project – See the Rules

DNR fisheries staff and Dave Halberg, a landowner on Little Lake Wissota, just finished up securing the trunk of the tree to the stump as part of a tree drop project.
