Description

This, the Highway 145 bridge on the north side of Rico, is one of several potential put-ins for this reach. It is about 2 miles downstream from the rarely-run Rico Falls (class V), and for most boating purposes is the beginning of navigable river. The upstream (east) side of the bridge is private and labeled as a helispot. On the downstream (west) side of the bridge, there is access but limited parking.
