Silver Creek on South Post is shown Oct. 3, 2017, after work to remove a dam was completed there by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources in coordination with the Directorate of Public Works Environmental Division Natural Resources Branch at Fort McCoy, Wis. The West Silver Wetland Dam, located on Fort McCoy's South Post near the Sparta-Fort McCoy Airport, has been in place on Silver Creek since 1952 and now is in the process of being removed. Work to remove the West Silver Wetland Dam began in early July and was completed in August by a crew that specializes in improving streams and returning them to a natural state.
