Description

After the braided section, you are welcomed into the second gorge by Three Sisters. They are three water supply dams with very good characteristics despite being man made. Each consecutive dam gets bigger and the last one is by far the best with an 8 to 10 foot plunge into a deep pool! Welcome to the second gorge! Several Class III+ ledges follow over the next several miles.
