Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

* Gauge is well downstream, therefore does not represent actual flow in this reach. For that reason, I reference the 'stage' reading rather than the 'cfs' conversion.

Rapid Descriptions

Dells (Class III, Mile 3.6)

An island splits the flow. To the left, the river is (fairly) tame. To the right, a complex series of maneuvering awaits. Cedars partially block the entrance, and a series of ledges and waves ensues until the currents from the other channel rejoin. At high flows, this will be a hand full.



Rapids (marked on topos) (Class II, Mile 9.5)

This rapids lies downstream of the listed take-out, and just upstream of the recommended put-in for the next section of river. Since it is such a minor rapids (easy boulder garden rapids), and nothing else is gained but flatwater mileage, we recommend using the listed take-out for this reach.
