Description

It is highly likely you will want/need to end your run at or before this point. The next stretch of the river is exceedingly likely to be so snagged up as to make paddling inadvisable (or unbearable). While there appears to still be decent gradient, there are no 'big' falls like the couple in the first quarter-mile (+/-).
