Description

This is the best put in option for paddling through the Redinger Gorge.    Look for the gated road leading down towards the base of the dam.    A sign on the gate says, "Dam #7"  The trail starts just outside the gate and leads straight down the hill.   The trail is not in great condition but it is discernable.  There are some stairs and ladders near the bottom.
