Description

This may be the one area on the river that has some decent waves and riffles. The river bends slightly to the left then steadily back to the right around a low fan. Finally the river bends sharply back to the left and resumes its course. Looks like there are waves all along the bend and then a steeper drop at the end where the river turns back left.
