This is also an easy trip. This is the
view from the Rapid City Dam, where one would launch. In low water such
as this you will have to walk downstream a bit.
Fast water in the
spring will requite caution as obstruction
such as drifting trees may appear.
The last stretch takes you along the lake
be sure to avoid coming too close to the dam near Rivers.
