Description
Per Robert Farmer: I ran this in May of 2004. Rockville gauge was just over 10 feet. The gauge at Brandonville Pike is difficult to read, as it faces midstream, but "0" may be above the minimum. The run is very short, and there was one log portage. However, at this level, the Little Sandy above Brandonville Pike was BRILLIANT!!! It was glorious Class 4 bigish-water rock and roll!
