Description
A significant portion of this fairly long section is lake paddling, some with very irrgular shores! This makes it an unlikely choice for serious whitewater paddlers. (Also meaning anyone else won't want paddle this on a windy day!) While there are random bits of rapids and swiftwater, the overall impression will be a flatwater paddle. It may be possible to shorten the trip using alternate access points.
