Description
A fine shorter reach of another branch of the Escanaba. Unlike the most adjacent stretches of the (main stem) Escanaba, this one appears to feature at least two somewhat significant ledges which are likely to provide some play, probably at a pretty fair variety of flows.

Shuttle Info
It is possible (likely) that shorter routes (than the default directions provided below) may exist by using unimproved forest trails. Otherwise, for the full run, shuttling as shown, this shuttle is nearly a half-hour (each way). We highly recommend meeting at take-out, gearing up, swapping boats and boaters to as few vehicles as possible (to leave 'drop vehicles' there), then driving to put-in to run river. This gets you on water without the delay which would result from meeting at put-in, having to run shuttle down and back up (while some boaters wait somewhere near a full hour) before putting on river!
Since the apparent 'best' features/playspots are both in the later part of the run, it is likely folks will often just do a shortened version of this run, with a far shorter shuttle.
