Description

Having been flowing mostly west-to-east, the river will do a big zig-zag, south-east, then north-to-northeast, around a hairpin to south-west, and to south-east again. Not far beyond, it will sweep around a horseshoe bend, dropping down a fine sliding falls as it does so. Get out to scout (river-left) to see the assortment of ledges and rocks which lay around the bend beyond the falls proper, ready to trip you up (should the falls and bend not be sufficient to do so first).
