Description

There will be a small eddy for your group on river Left but already you'll appreciate an eddy where your whole group fits. From the eddy you can see most of what is going on in this small ledge drop. Its just big enough you want to pop up and take a peek that there is no wood hiding in it. A very straight forward sluice to skip through. You are now very close to Tollgate road just on the otherside of the house. The land owners sometimes talk to the boaters. Be quite in their back yard if you get out of your boat. If anyone needs to walk out, do so just downstream of the property in the woods. Below this drop the creek ramps up again and flumes along. Strainers have been an issue for the next 4 tenths of a mile down to the Steel Bridge. Getting out and finding those emergency half boat eddies has been an issue in this stretch, but not usually for the hardened class 4-5 creeker.
