Description
According to Will Reeves "Don't even list it. Lots of people have tried it and all of them have hiked off." How could I not include this one! Both the put in and takeout are easily accessable. _bradley_ More from Will "Boating the Coleman river is absolutely ridiculous. The river has no strainer free rapids and even the flatwater poses a serious strainer hazard. Considering that this "river" flows once every five years it is not worth the danger or effort. Believe me I left a boat here for over a week." In spite of Will's negative attitude about the run, or maybe as a result of it, a number of groups are waiting for a good rain to give the run a shot. With the drought of the last few years its been hard to catch the run with enough water. I for one am looking forward to hearing the trip reports. _bradley_ The last mile of the river to the confluence with Tallulah drops at a bit over 400 feet and is full of wood. Be careful. Jan 2003.
