  • Lake Wisconsin is a reservoir on the Wisconsin River in southern Wisconsin in the United States. It is located in Columbia and Sauk counties, approximately 5 miles (8.0 km) southeast of Baraboo and 25 miles (40 km) NNW of Madison. Today it is home to the Wisconsin wine appellation of the Lake Wisconsin AVA. It was formed by the construction of the Prairie du Sac Dam, which was begun in 1911 and completed in 1914. It is part of the Wisconsin River system of reservoirs. The lake has a maximum depth of 24 feet (7.3 m). It has an area of 7,197 acres (29.13 km2). Its construction effectively ended the Fox-Wisconsin Waterway connection to the Mississippi River, although commercial traffic had ended decades before completion of the dam. The lake provides flood control and is a popular destination for recreational boating and fishing. In 1966, the Wisconsin state record Common Carp was caught in Lake Wisconsin, weighing 57 lbs. 2 oz. The Merrimac Ferry crosses the lake at Merrimac, Wisconsin. (en)
  • Le lac Wisconsin est un réservoir sur la rivière Wisconsin situé au sud de l'état du Wisconsin aux États-Unis. Il s'étend sur le comté de Columbia et de Sauk, à 8 km au sud-est de Baraboo et 40 km au nord-nord-ouest de Madison. Il a été formé grâce à la construction du barrage de Prairie du Sac, qui a commencé en 1911 et s'est achevée en 1914. Il fait partie de l'ensemble de réservoirs de la rivière Wisconsin (Wisconsin River system of reservoirs). Sa construction a permis d'achever la connexion entre Voie navigable Fox-Wisconsin et la Rivière Mississippi, bien que le trafic commercial se soit arrêté des décennies avant la mise en service du barrage. Le lac offre une protection contre les inondations et est une destination populaire pour les sports nautiques et la pratique de la pêche. Le (en) traverse le lac en reliant (en) et (en). (fr)
