Class I (I) Presque Isle River, MI

The South and West Branches of the Presque Isle River have extensive wetland complexes that are scattered throughout the headwaters and the Presque Isle Flowage Impoundment. The flowage was designed specifically for wildlife and has served this purpose well. The wetland values are excellent, and northern pike and suckers contribute to the respectable populations of bald eagles, ospreys, and other fish-eating birds that nest around the flowage. The flowage was one of four release sites for trumpeter swans as part of a reintroduction effort in the mid-1990s.

Small Scenic Section with some small tag alder shoal sections.
