Description

After "The Big One" you will pass under the New Hampshire Rt 77 Bridge.  Another mile or so of class IIish water will bring you up to a rusty steel truss bridge that carries River Road.  Just under the bridge is the top of Buzzell Hill Rapid.  This rapid is fairly long with a series of ledge drops each followed by a hole.  A competent boater should be able to boat scout the entire drop.  At the bottom there is a nice recovery eddy.
