Description
Packers falls is a park-and play spot near Durham, or the apex of a short float from Wiswall dam. During high runnoff this short section can be very fun, but be wary of ice chunks and a big ice shelf in the pool below. This is basically a park and play spot with a small 6 ft drop at the top leading through a little rock garden into a big pool. You can also run from Wiswall dam down to Packers falls. The section between is scenic class I-II at all but high flows.
