Wildcat Creek at this put-in location is a headwater stream in Milwaukee County near Greenfield, Wisconsin. With a drainage area of 33 square miles and an average flow of 6.45 cubic feet per second, this is a small creek suitable for paddling during normal to high water conditions. The creek has a notable average gradient of 14.1 feet per mile, indicating moderate current and some whitewater characteristics typical of stream-order 3 waterways. The elevation change across the entire 30-mile length is significant at 425 feet total drop, suggesting this section will have some moving water dynamics.
Paddlers accessing at this location should expect a small creek environment with moderate current and potential whitewater features. The average velocity of 0.98 feet per second indicates steady downstream movement. Water levels and paddlability will vary seasonally, with higher flows in spring typically providing better conditions. This put-in is located near the headwaters, meaning upstream paddling opportunities are limited but downstream runs toward the creek mouth are available.
No specific amenities, hazards, or restrictions are documented in the available data for this access point. Paddlers should scout conditions before launching and be prepared for a small creek paddle with moderate current. Check local water conditions and weather before visiting, as small creeks can be sensitive to rainfall and seasonal variations.
