      A lot to celebrate: Whitewater guides talk Klamath dams and dam removal
      Aug 9 2023

      Since the construction of JC Boyle, whitewater recreation occurs via
      scheduled releases from the dam. Known colloquially as the "Upper
      Klamath," this reach of the river has legendary rapids with big waves and
      exciting drops. With the dams gone, flows will be much more variable and
      less predictable, eliminating the reach as a reliable option for guiding
      businesses. This will be a loss for outfitters and recreational users of the
      river, but as you'll hear, dam removal also creates some new opportunities.
      This episode was recorded on the banks of the Upper Klamath with guides
      from Indigo Creek Outfitters

      Want to know what scientists think could happen with all of that sediment (13
      million cubic yards!) stored behind the dams? Or how the temperature,
      nutrients, and algae in the river could change? Chauncey Anderson, recently
      retired from the US Geological Survey, helps unpack what we think we know
      about the water quality changes ahead for the Klamath and where the gaps in
      our knowledge are
