Description

High flows over the spillway during big winters can keep the channel relatively clear of brush below this confluence.   It will be a relief to exit the tangled forest that is the release channel and enter the much more natural high flow channel. 

If there have not been any high flows for a few years, the channel will be over grown here as well.
