PADDLING -- The wet word from Stateline, Idaho, is that Dead Dog Hole has been paddling better than ever in the past two months, dispelling worries that Stateline bridge construction might alter the legendary kayaker play feature.

It's not only better than ever but also easier to access, said Travis Nichols.

"I was using the Stateline exit but the cool kids let me know that its easier to take the first Post Falls Exit and drive around Seltice way to the North side of the bridge.From there the quick walk down to the hole seems like a luxury!

The hole Is also a bit more aesthetically pleasing this year with the closet piling being removed.

Get out to Dead Dog and enjoy the Spring flows before it bumps up again!
