What is it ?
#14
Hey patches, Yes the Red River is part of the Red River Valley. The Red River is so dangerous is because it has eight low-head dams, and many of its tributaries have them as well. Low-head dams are so dangerous they are called drowning machines because, as water rolls over the dam, it creates an hydraulic current that pulls objects back to the face of the dam and to the bottom of the stream. Low-head dams are found near the following cities:[ul] [li]Wahpeton-Breckenridge [li]Wolverton, N. Dak. [li]Hickson, N. Dak. [li]Fargo-Moorhead (3) [li]Grand Forks-East Grand Forks [li]Drayton, N. Dak. [/li][/ul]Many people have died from these and others from just drowing on their own.
But on the upside of the Red River is that it has great fishing!
