Description

The first notable horizon line on the creek.  Run a variety of ways at different levels with boat scouting eddies all the way down to the entrance drop.  A two part rapid with moving slack water between a top and bottom drop.  If anyone is having big problems here, now is the time to reconsider paddling the rest.
