River Description

Big Falls provides area boaters a play spot and nice sized drop. The river splits around a small island. River left is pretty much of a sheer drop (about 5-6'), while river right is a series of steps and slides which should provide more play possibilities.

For additional description, see Upper Midwest PaddleGuide

This may provide a fine companion piece for boaters who take advantage of the newly scheduled releases at Jim Falls on the Chippewa River.
