On the river
River mile 119.3 on Upper Iowa River · Iowa DNR River Programs mile markers on paddling routes, 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, under 0.1 mi downstream: Lidtke Mill Dam (low-head), 12 ft. · Iowa DNR River Programs dam hazards
Up to 10 river miles each way, from the agencies' inventories; not every hazard is listed and rivers change. Scout before you go.
