Description
The rapid directly under Paper Mill Bridge. Class 3 at low flows, Class 5 at high flows. The hole downstream of the bridge becomes a keeper when the water is high. When the water is really high a riverwide hole forms on the upstream side of the bridge. Its worth a look from the bridge before you put on.
