Description

Before Pearce Ferry road was extended all the way out to the river channel,  South Cove was the only viable take out past Diamond Creek. Now that there is a good take out at Pierce Ferry there is no need to go to South Cove. Now that the Pearce Ferry Rapid is class 5+, it would be dangerous to continue to South Cove and have to run that rapid.
