Description

Just over 3/4ths mile down from Plains Road, immediately after Kelsey Creek comes in river-left, as the Sturgeon takes a sharp right, it encounters a first ledge/wave. River-right may be more aggressive, river-left will skirt most of this spot. This is merely a small hint at what lies ahead.
