FYI, the dam is now back. See pictures. At lower levels when the main drop of the dells is relatively safe one can run the dam gates. There are 2 on the river right. The right one tends to have debris in the outflow and does not have a clean line, so I would suggest the left on that forms a nice tongue.
At higher levels, say over 500 cfs the stationary part of the dam becomes runnable. Granted it will be a bit of a bumpy 5ft drop at 500cfs. The far right of this stationary section of the dam looked like it would be best, based on a run at 485 cfs.
