Trip Report

ReporterSteve Kreim

This photo was taken at 2,800 CFS. At this level, Dillon Falls reaches Class III, with 4ft waves lining up below two of the ledges. A couple of recirculating holes form below the ledges and the river is nearly 200ft wide at this spot; thus, throw bags are not very effective. There are public parking lots and launch points at the top and the bottom of the drop ( both on river-right), but in-between are private lots on both banks. Be sure to ask permission before trespassing (this is necessary to scout the drops).
