Description
There are three huge culverts under the railroad. The center should generally be the best choice. Coming out the downstream end, there is an island with most of the flow going to the left. Aerial photos show a lot of downed trees in that channel, so proceed with caution, and be prepared if portaging is necessary. A very narrow right channel may be a better option (if it is not too wooded up, and if it has enough flow to paddle through) since it is a shorter channel.
