Lower Saint Louis River [ Whitewater Canoeing and Whitewater Kayaking ]

[ This video is better when watched with sound ] The Lower St. Louis River flows through Minnesota's Jay Cooke State Park south of Duluth. This run was done at the "Fish Flow" which is about 350 cfs. The river is a lot less pushy but more razor sharp rocks are in play. The video in this run includes Octopus Rapids, The Swinging Bridge Falls, and Fin Falls. I am not sure if anyone has run Fin Falls in an open boat... this may have been the first whitewater canoeing run of Fin Falls. This was an incredible day on an incredible river spent with incredible friends.
