Description

After passing under a footbridge, you enter the lower dells. The footbridge (rebuilt in 2025) provides a convenient way to look upstream and downstream to scout the dells.

NOTE: The trees which had been in the river here (as shown in the photo) have apparently flushed out during a high-water event. It would be a good idea to have a look here (before putting on) to know that there is still clear passage.

Not far downstream, an eddy against the river-left vertical wall (which normally allows 'staging' to try for a few small catch-on-the-fly, one-and-done waves which form at higher levels) has an accumulation of wood (as of Sept.2025). The main channel is clear/passable (again, as of Sept.2025).
