Wild Rivers Whitetails ~ Wisconsin Big Buck Hunting

The video above was shot at Wild Rivers Whitetails in Northeastern Wisconsin hunting ranch in the fall and provides an overview of the Wisconsin property, deer, stands and lodge. Check it out!

Wild Rivers Whitetails is located in northeastern Wisconsin, in a region known for its crystal clear wild rivers. It is a natural setting for whitetails with large tracts of upland forests. It was an easy choice to establish Wild Rivers here in this Northwoods area of Wisconsin.  Wild Rivers Whitetails was established in 1996 and isn’t just a business or a job, it is a lifestyle!

Owned & operated by Gary & Jane Nelson it is a family run operation with Gary and 3 of his brothers working full time on the farm, and guiding our hunts in the fall. They  appreciate the family groups that hunt with them since family is what makes them successful.  Everyone at WRW works hard to give their guests  the best possible hunt adventure.  In addition, we have all worked to support and enhance the deer and hunting industry both statewide and nationwide.  Each year we work with various organizations to provide hunts for handicapped and disabled children.

Gary Nelson is the past president of both Whitetails of Wisconsin and North American Deer Farmers Association, which are industry organizations that promote deer farming and hunting.

About The Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin

About The Wisconsin Dells

The Dells of the Wisconsin River also called the Wisconsin Dells is a 5 mile gorge on the Wisconsin River in southern Wisconsin in the United States noted for its scenic beauty, in particular for its unique sandstone rock formations and tributary canyons. The cliffs, some over 100 feet high, and side canyons are closed to the public to protect sensitive ecological features. The viewing of the rock formations by water is a popular tourist attraction in the area. The nearby city of Wisconsin Dells is the center of summer tourist activity, much of it in the form of the theme parks unrelated to the river features.

The cultural history of the area stretches back several thousand years, from early Paleo-Indian people to the more recent Native American peoples, such as Ho-Chunk, Sac, and Menominee, who left behind effigy and burial mounds, camps and village sites, garden beds, and rock art.  The Dells were made famous in 1886 by the photographer H. H. Bennett, who took the first stop-action photo of his son jumping onto Stand Rock.

Wisconsin Dells was founded as Kilbourn City in 1857 by Byron Kilbourn, who is notable for also founding Kilbourntown, one of the three original towns at the confluence of the Milwaukee, Menomonee, and Kinnickinnic Rivers that joined to become Milwaukee. Before the establishment of Kilbourn City, the region around the dells of the Wisconsin River was primarily a lumbering area until 1851, when the La Crosse and Milwaukee Railroad was chartered with Kilbourn as its president. The railroad made plans to bridge the Wisconsin River near the river’s dells, and a boomtown named Newport sprang up at the expected site of the bridge in 1853. The population of this new city quickly swelled to over 2,000, but when the railroad finally came through the area in 1857 it took nearly everyone by surprise by crossing the river a mile upstream from the site of Newport. As a result, Newport was rapidly turned into a ghost town as the settlers flocked to the new city at the site of the railroad bridge, Kilbourn City. Gradually, tourism became a large part of Kilbourn City. To make it easier for tourists to identify Kilbourn City with the natural landscape it was famous for, the name of the city was changed to Wisconsin Dells.  Things to do in the Wisconsin Dells ~ Click  Here

Little Red Riding Hood

Little Red Riding Hood is a European fairy tale about a young girl and a Big Bad Wolf.  The origins of the Little Red Riding Hood story can be traced to versions from various European countries and more than likely preceding the 17th century, of which several exist, some significantly different from the currently known, Grimms-inspired version. It was told by French peasants in the 10th century.   In Italy, the Little Red Riding Hood was told by peasants in fourteenth century.
