Description
A project at the site of a former dam has created a short stretch of tame but playable whitewater for boaters in the immediate area. (Anyone who has to drive any distance to here is likely to be underwhelmed.) This is a good place for beginning boaters to practice in moving water.
Put-in from a park on the south shore (river-left) just east of the bridge. There is a public restroom for changing.
Take-out on the south shore (river-left) just west of the bridge. A boardwalk (connecting from the bridge to the end of the run) can be used to hike back up to the put-in.
