Description
Old Fossil Creek Dam represents a critical navigational point with a mandatory portage due to the existing dam structure. The area requires careful scouting and precise land-based boat handling, with zero potential for running the dam itself. Paddlers must be prepared for a complete river exit and careful overland transport of watercraft.
