Description

After running the Dells Entrance drop, the river swings 90-degrees to the right and immediately heads into a long, technical, boulder-garden dells. Depending on flows and your skills and interests, there may be some play possible through here, but action is pretty continuous until a brief pool midway along. This separates the Upper (or Middle) Dells from the Lower Dells, where more of the same technical boulder-bed leads to the final pool as you come to the bridge for your take-out.
