Members kbbgood Posted August 28, 2021 Members Share Posted August 28, 2021 The Big Piney maps say there is a couple dams about the 66 mile on the river. Can they be run with a jet boat? Been on it before but never up that far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 There is supposed to be one not far above East Gate. There was a dirt ramp there last visit, and a couple miles of deep slow unproductive water on the way down to Spring Creek. Al A might have done it. Looks kinda urban up that way on OnX maps.

Al Agnew Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I haven't floated through the Fort since about 2002. Back then, there was a dam near the upstream end of the stretch through the fort that would have definitely stopped you from running with a jetboat. But I just spent a bit of time looking for it on Google Earth, and can't find it. There was and still is a low water bridge in the middle of the fort that would be unrunnable. There was once a dam a short distance above East Gate...the dam is still there but the river bypasses it and has for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
