Trip Report

ReporterBryan Foster

We ran this at 570cfs, this was a pretty full river. The most the lady living at the take-out had seen in a decade. The beginning small rapids that border the park had some minor surfing at this level. The 3rd set after the bridge, which was just high enough to squeeze under in a full duck, had all 3 channels open. The river right one, with the most water, was a clean drop of wave trains. The center was less exiting and the river left was fun with a skip off a pillow in front of a rock. The rapid just after the park developed a nice hole, which had a pretty clean line through on the left side. Was on the steep side for my play skill level, see pics. The upper dells should be scouted as it has 2 fair sized wave/holes. Both flushed well, but a look is always safe. The lower straight section of dells was a nice straight forward section, boat scoutable. I posted a few pics and vids to give an idea of the level.
