Description
The flat water ends at Big Eddy Estates. The river channel widens and is blocked by a giant, green, bushy and tree filled plug. Water probably filters through the whole width, but there are some narrow open chutes on far river right.
Paddle to the right side of the river, where the main flow heads into the bushes. Head down the obvious chute, eddy out on the left, and move into the next chute to the left. This one is overhanging and more narrow, but it opens up a bit after curving left. The channel opens wider above a small blocky ledge.
