Description

Take out under tunnel of clapboard run, park in lot at park, walk under the tunnel stream to get to the river.

From Echo to Franklin the water turns back into sadness. The boney piles are pretty unappealing and the smell is bad, but you get used to it. Some neat history, class II rapids down to Franklin. Some potential to be class III in some at higher flow from Mineral Point down to here.
