Description

This is the final large drop. The river again splits with a large amount of water flowing right.  The right side becomes difficult to run at high water, for this side scout right. The left channel has nice 7 foot waterfall, scouting for this is best left, as well as portaging. The rock on the river next to the falls (seen in picture) is a sive, this can be seen especially at low water.
