One of the signature drops on the Split Rock. Spring 2009
While this river has not suffered the same 'improvements' by the DNR as some other local streams (dynamiting the beautiful slides to transform them into stepped fish ladders), it still manages to inflict it's share of damage on boats. It is not entirely uncommon for someone (out of a group of paddlers) to end up with a major gash and leak in their boat (a split boat from the Split Rock). (North Shore paddling can be hazardous to your pocketbook!)
This run is too much fun! Big slides like these abound.
Dave and Dag show two possible routes on Ski Jump.
