⚠️ ACCESS ALERT — AUGUST A. BUSCH CONSERVATION AREA

Planning to fish or explore the Busch Conservation Area in St. Charles County?

• The road serving Lakes 11, 12, and 30 is closed because erosion damaged a failing culvert.

• The Lake 33 spillway bridge is closed to vehicles but remains open to pedestrians.

The lakes and the entire conservation area have NOT been listed as closed. However, your normal driving route may not be available.

Link in comments.

Please share this with anyone planning a trip to Busch.

💧 Do you know how Highland protects Silver Lake?

Silver Lake supports fishing, boating, wildlife—and our public water supply. When erosion carries soil and sediment into the watershed, the effects reach far beyond the shoreline.

HeartLands Conservancy is hosting the FREE Clean Water, Bright Future Tour, giving residents a firsthand look at local protection projects, including:

🌊 In-lake structures
🌱 Sediment-control basins
💧 A riffle project

📅 Monday, September 14, 2026
⏰ 9:00 AM–12:00 PM
📍 Highland, Illinois
🎟️ Free registration required

BaitLogic believes local outdoor knowledge should remain free, accurate, and useful.

Protect what matters—beyond the bite.
