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: Stockdale Dam (In-Channel) (partial: does not span the whole channel), 6 ft. · Indiana DNR low-head dams
- Low-head dam, 9.0 mi upstream: Eel River Dam South of Laketon (partial: does not span the whole channel), 3 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.
