Description

This dam had about a 2 foot drop over most of its width at 250 cfs. (sept 2, 2007) There was a chute on far river right, but it ran into thick hanging branches from a tree. We ran it a few feet out from the right where there was still plenty of water but no branches. The rest of the dam looked shallow enough that we could have scraped and pushed our way over. The reversal across the base of the dam was tiny at 250 cfs, but could become dangerous at some higher flow.

This dam is an abondoned USGS stream gauge with the gauging tower on the river right.
