Description
Franklin Falls is a 10 foot waterfall with a shallow rock cluster just down stream and a mean looking hole. There is an eddy river left some distance upstream that should be caught to scout this drop, class IV water continues to the lip and a small eddy right just above can be caught but is not a good scouting or portage option. The drop can be portaged left with a seal launch of a high bed rock shelf.
