        HIGHLIGHTS OF CONSERVATION AND RECREATION IN WISCONSIN
   Recreation - Over 14 thousand lakes, 2 thousand trout streams, 5 thousand
campsites, and
6.1 million acres of hunting land contribute to the recreational facilities
of Wisconsin. As a
result, over 69 million fish and 3 million game of various kinds are taken
each year, over 425
thousand boats are registered, 118 thousand annual and 444 thousand daily
park admission
stickers and tags are sold, and over 900 thousand hunting licenses and tags
and a million fishing
licenses are issued.
   Wisconsin has 48 state parks, 9 state forests, 9 state trails, and 3 recreation
areas. The parks
range in size from Devil's Lake with 7,719 acres to Lizard Mound with 31
acres. The largest
single state recreational facility is the Northern Highlands American Legion
Forest with 218,781
acres. A more recent addition to the state recreational facilities program
has been the state's
growing trails system. Nine trails presently total 4,276 acres; 270 miles
of trails are presently
usable for hiking, biking, and snowmobiling.
   Over 8.8 million people visited Wisconsin's state parks in 1983 or - to
put it another way
2.4 million cars brought visitors to the parks. Utilization of the state
forests and trails also
increased, with over 4.4 million people visiting the forests and over 159,000
people using the
trails.
   Land Acquisition - Over 130 thousand acres have been acquired at a cost
of over $67 million
in support of various natural resources functions since the 1974-75 fiscal
year.
   Wisconsin's Outdoor Recreation Act Program, better known as ORAP, was
created in 1969.
Although ORAP funds have been used for many recreational purposes, including
fish and wild-
life management, youth conservation camps, and the Olympic Ice Rink, the
largest expenditures
of ORAP funds since 1969 have been made for water pollution abatement aids-
$144.4 million
- and for state parks - $67.7 million. The water pollution abatement aids
account for almost
half of the total expenditures made in the ORAP program to date. From 1969
to 1984, $331.8
million has been spent on the total ORAP program.
