"Portage Canal"@en . "For the Portage Canal located in the Keweenaw Peninsula, see Keweenaw Waterway.The Portage Canal was built to connect the Fox River and Wisconsin River at Portage, Wisconsin along the Fox-Wisconsin Waterway.Numerous attempts were made to build the thin Wisconsin-Fox connection through the marshy land, beginning in 1837 with the formation of the \"Portage Canal Company\". Digging and hauling by hand through two and a half miles of muddy terrain, the project was quickly abandoned."@en . "1835Z"^^ . "1977-08-26Z"^^ . . . "77000030" . .
