Description
Fine canoe-tripping or kayak cruising stretch. A couple miles of flatwater access and egress, but between that appears to be nearly continuous low-grade rapids (riffles and rips), interspersed with a few areas of somewhat more interesting action. More specifically, the first three miles are only 4 FPM, followed by two miles of 10 FPM. The middle three-to-four miles clip along nicely around 20 FPM, then it eases back for a mile-and-a-half at about 18 FPM, before dropping off to 7 FPM about two-and-a-half miles to the take-out.
