B) Appleton Dam (PnP) *Access Issues*

I paddle this section putting in river left just below the out door deck of fratellos and taking out just before the bridge on river left side just at the end of parking lot for the paper discovery place. I did multiple laps about 7 or 8 laps. I would ferry across getting into to the main flow just after the large pillars on river and before the break wall.  Good wave train to throw kick flips or free wheels. Right at the end of break wall on river left lining up with the river right pillar seemed to be a good wave but it would surge and crash making it hard to get a solid surf in. Levels where about 5,000cfs. I rolled in the main current no rocks or anything but overall its not that deep not sure what it's like in the main flow on depth but especially once you get past the end of the brake wall making a swim or rolling more risky.  No one complained or said anything regarding staying 500ft away from the dam which I clearly broke that rule.
