　　几只雪雁在总长为164英里(约264公里)的圣十字河的上空飞翔着，这条河流在注入密西西比河之前，将明尼苏达与威斯康星两个州分隔开来。圣十字河与它的支流Namekagon都属于1968年颁布的《荒原及景观河流法》中首批被保护的河流之列，这项国会法案将保证那些河流不被工业化、不被开发或是被水坝拦截。

英文注释：
Snow Geese, Grantsville, Wisconsin

Snow geese take flight over the 164-mile-long (264-kilometer-long) St. Croix River. Separating Minnesota and Wisconsin before emptying into the Mississippi River, the St. Croix and its tributary the Namekagon were among the first rivers to be protected by the 1968 Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, a Congressional decree which guarantees these rivers will not be industrialized, dammed, or developed.
