Description

This rapid is right by the gun club.  Be sure to make your presence known without getting out!  Otherwise it may be possible to get shot if people didn't know you were down in the creek.  These good ol' boys don't like boaters, but there's nothing they can do.

 

This is a rocky, sloping rapid with a few concrete slabs thrown in the mix.  The right side can have some huge holes at levels above 6 ft, but watch out for big strainers on the right side as the river makes a bend to the left at the bottom of the rapid.  In low water there isn't much of anything here.
