A) Belille Falls (Arpin Dam) to powerhouse (1 mile)

Class II Belille Falls is marked on maps as being in the natural river channel below Arpin Dam, and before the powerplant returns its water to the river. We have no first-hand information regarding the remainder of the reach as listed here. Doing a 'virtual walk' (using online aerial views) downstream from the powerhouse, there are absolutely no obvious areas of rapids or shoals in the rest of this listed run. Thus, whitewater boaters are likely to be interested only in the (just less than) 1-mile stretch from the dam(s) to the powerhouse. Anyone with more knowledge as to the merits of Belille Falls (rapids) and/or the rest of this reach is encouraged to help your fellow boaters using the "Comments" input box (which should appear below for all registered, logged-in users). IMPORTANT NOTE! It would appear that there are actually three sets of releasable gates from the Radisson Flowage (plus the intake canal for the hydroplant). When river flow exceeds hydroplant capacity, water will be released from the dam. However, depending upon how much needs to be released, it seems plausible that not all gates in all three releasable locations might be open. This could affect your put-in location!
