I went back to the St. Louis River/I-35 area this afternoon and, after getting permission from the State Patrol, parked along Hwy. 45 and snowshoed in to a point below the rapids visible from I-35.
I was able, from here, to get a pretty good look upstream at the open water. There was no sign of a dipper. I'll try to check out the area tomorrow, just in case, but it's probably a long shot. Jim Barrett Duluth
