Park rangers probably won't like it much if they catch anybody trying to run the concrete dam chute since it's illegal. That's not saying it hasn't been done at minimum flows. Attempting to 'run' the rereg dam when the water is blasting full tilt (or any other time for that matter) ain't a real good idea either; since the river immediately below the dam has some of the nastiest upstream pointing undercuts I've ever laid eyes on. Don't really think anyone, regardless of 'skill level', could survive such a pinning/thrashing. Unrunnable, IMO.
