Take-out

Wildcat Creek is a small headwater stream located in Greenfield, Milwaukee County, Wisconsin, serving as a whitewater take-out point for paddlers. The creek features a moderate gradient of 14.1 feet per mile with an average velocity of 0.98 feet per second, making it suitable for whitewater paddling activities. With a drainage area of 33 square miles and an average flow of 6.45 cubic feet per second, this is a relatively intimate creek experience rather than a large volume waterway.

This take-out site is positioned on Wildcat Creek, which extends 30.12 miles total and descends 425 feet from its headwaters. The creek's elevation ranges from 688.50 to 818.00 meters, indicating significant topographic relief along its course. As a Stream Order 3 waterway, it represents a moderate-sized tributary system suitable for paddlers seeking a creek-based whitewater experience in southeastern Wisconsin.

Paddlers using this take-out should be prepared for creek-style paddling conditions typical of headwater streams in the Milwaukee County area. The distance to the river mouth is approximately 878 miles, indicating this is part of a larger watershed system. Boaters should verify current water conditions and flow rates before launching, as creek levels can vary significantly with seasonal precipitation and runoff patterns.
