Sturgeon (Menominee R. trib.)

In 2006 Ran at 1600 cfs. Carried up from the take out to about 1 mile above where the dam used to be just above a narrow dells. (The point where the canyon pretty much ends) and ran back to the parking lot. At 1600 cfs this run is a hoot! But be cautious to search for logs. During our run the rapid where the dam used to be had logs choking the main channel to river right so we had to take the river left channel. There are 3 holes at the end of the rapids that look pretty munchy. In fact 2 of our group got stuck in the bottom most hole on river right and kept them for a while before finally flushing them.

In 2007 Ran at same level and holes at end of run are now more like big waves and not so keepy. The river right channel just below where the dam used to be was log free, but looked low head damish. We took the river left channel again.
