Description

After doldrums around 2.8 miles in the river splits 3 ways, normal run to mineral point and beyond is center or right, but if you go right you can exit river on river right for a loop. There is a sloping path to the right you can walk up to near the top of the big bridge and put back in, just eddy out on the right. You will miss the next bigger II (conemaugh viaduct rapids) before Mineral Point take out, or attain back to it, as you would have to cross railroad.
