Highway 41 crosses some bridges


Now that the Highway 41 Streetview trek has left Oshkosh, the next scenic highlights are lakes and waterways in the Fox River / Lake Winnebago system.   So let's take a look at the next set of views.


Approach to the Lake Butte des Morts bridge. Lake Butte des Morts is a relatively small lake west of Lake Winnebago, connected via the Fox River to Lake Winnebago, and also connected the bifurcated Lake Winneconne and Lake Poygan. Weirdly and confusingly, there are two Fox Rivers in this region; this is where the Upper Fox River flows into Lake Winnebago. The Lower Fox River flows out of the lake further to the north, and flows to Green Bay (an extension of Lake Michigan).




On the Lake Butte des Morts bridge. This is actually looking north on the southbound side, because the northbound Streetview was partially blocked by a couple of big trucks.




The Valley Popcorn Company (Fox Valley, that is).




This is the Neenah-Menasha area; and that's the Menasha Corporation headquarters.




Next, a closer look at the famous domicile of Neenah, Wisconsin.
