Old Dover - First Class III

About 1/4 mile after the dam drop, there is an island split - STAY LEFT - it is relatively easy to see the correct route.  Things get steep as you approach the rejoining of the river and you need to push strongly to the right through a narrow 6-ft slot between boulders on center-right. Immediately after this is another river-wide drop and then a large fallen pine in the water on river left, which can be a dangerous strainer for a swimmer here.  Fortunately, the narrows typically spits you out on river right and that is the opposite side of the pine, but if a paddler swims above the narrows, it could result in a hard pin getting pushed into the pine, so proceed with caution.
