Description

Blackberry rapid probably would not be as difficult if it were located further downstream but it is located shortly after the put in. The rapid is long (1/3 mile)and does not let up until you approach the Albany covered bridge. The main difficulty here is a miriad of pinning rocks. There are some holes and a few play spots along the way.
