The West Fork Of the Chippewa River
The West Fork Of the Chippewa River flows out of Chippewa Lake in Sawyer County, Wisconsin. It flows south/southwest through the village of Clam Lake and eventually into Lake Chippewa (aka The Chippewa Flowage.) Its channel, now submerged under the waters of the flowage, meets the East Fork at the Winter Dam. The main body of the Chippewa River flows south from the dam.
