On the river
River mile 24.8 on St. Joseph River · Indiana DNR river miles, placed between its mile markers
Low-head dams drown people every year: the current below the drop circles back and holds a swimmer or a boat at the face. Portage around them; stay well clear above and below.
- Low-head dam, 9.0 mi downstream: Twin Branch Dam, 23.2 ft. · Indiana DNR low-head dams
Up to 10 river miles each way, from the agencies' inventories; not every hazard is listed and rivers change. Scout before you go.
