Description

If planning/attempting to continue downstream, you will paddle to the dam to get out and portage down park trails to below Big Manitou Falls in Pattison State Park, finding your way into the gorge as best you can. (Highly recommended to scout as much of this gorge as possible before carrying a boat in to attempt any run!)
