Turkey Farm Rd. to Erwin Rd.

This section starts mellow with some easier rapids and progresses as you get more towards the middle of the run marked by a concrete bridge. The old concrete bridge is removed and replaced with a bridge that can be paddled under as of November 2025. The next 100 yards or so after a bend to the right is heavier boogie with some holes to dodge mostly river left. When you start to see signs for the trail river right just before the creek cuts hard right, get out on the trail and scout. Ahead is the 'Big Rapid', which is class III. At lower levels (50 CFS or so) this can be run anwhere, dodging rocks, but at higher levels stay right for the first part then eddy to the middle and then punch the hole on the right side of some rocks. This has a play wave at some levels at the bottom. This is followed by some more boogie and some neat rock formations mostly river right. There are multiple options to play in the waves at the base of many of the drops. Once you reach Erwin Rd, the action is over, but continue a bit downstream till you see a rock jutting out from river left. Take out here and follow the trail till you reach the parking at Hollow Rock park. This is an excellent run that can be done as low as 50 CFS, but gets better as levels get higher. Always be on the lookout for wood since there are always spots where fallen trees have gathered.
