Popple

First run of this very late season: 4/29/2018 at 624CFS. Lots of bounce and velocity but no obstruction or ice shelves.

Anunson Trace Rapids start on the site where this dam was built. Built in 1880 by John and Halvor Anunson, it remained in place for the last log drive in 1908 ad was removed in 1910. The earth embankments and some in-river rocky debris are all that remain of the dam. When the Girard Lumber Company put in its railroad nearby it spelled the end of log drives.
