Description
This tributary of the Chippewa River has a nice bit of gradient. Shorter runs are available to focus on the main gradient which parallels the Arpin Dam/Belille Falls section. GAUGE INFO: Based on relative drainage areas, flow at our listed put-in could be 0.183 x Chippewa at Winter. Our 'Virtual Gauge' being reported for this section is based upon that calculation. Correlation is not assured. NOTE: The "Tuscobia State Trail" (a 74-mile abandoned railroad, now multi-use trail) roughly parallels Hwy.70 from Couderay to Radisson, and could be used to facilitate biked shuttle for the first 5.35 miles of this listed run. (As of this writing, it does NOT appear that any trail fee applies to biking this trail. There are disclaimers that "bicycling is not recommended. The trail is not groomed or surfaced and may be rough or soft in many sections. If you plan to bike the trail, the tread is more suitable for off-road bikes." )
