Rock Cut (Railroad) Falls

Just past a short zig-zag you'll come to a powerline crossing/clearing. Almost immediately you'll want to get out and scout from river-right (where the "Iron Horse Trail" passes through). This is one of Wisconsin's (and among the upper Midwest's) longest class IV rapids (nearly an unrelenting quarter-mile). The narrow channel is filled with action, with only a brief pause right at the (defunct) railroad bridge (now part of the "Iron Horse Trail"). Downstream of the bridge, the channel is slightly wider and the action slightly more manageable than above the bridge.
