Description

After something near 1.5 miles of rather uninterrupted flat water paddling, some gradient is encountered. Indeed, topos show something near 50' of drop in about a half mile. So, again, it is purely conjecture, but I'm guessing that someplace down through here, it's more than just class II or III. (Online aerial views are inconclusive.)
