Ron runs the put-in dam. This is
an important picture because it is a good way to judge level. The
majority of the dam is just barely covered by water. This is good.
If there is 2-3" of water over the dam, you may want to RUN AWAY.
We've tried it that high and once you reach Coon, it is not pretty.

I remember this rapid on Coon. Itwas
impressive as hell at high water. It took only a few seconds to realize
that a walk was in order.
