Description

Expect the start of this rapids when you see the large, near-shore boulder on river-left. The top, bigger wave section is often complicated by a down tree. Substantial eddies are available at the end of the run where 2 man-made islands are spaced across the river. The islands are remnant of a bridge that use to lead across the river from the CCC camp that was on river-right.
