Strong Falls

As you get to Goodman Park, a footbridge spans the river, crossing to small islands in the braided right channels of the river. A short slide lies immediately under the bridge. A decent pool follows before the main drop, Strong Falls. While it has been run, most boaters of this reach will be content (and well advised) to take out above this falls. The falls is multiple pitches, with much shallow rock, creating a chaos in the flows. A short pool leads to an easy slide into a sweet little wave. Beginners may use this area (below Strong Falls) as a practice area, to work the currents, doing ferries, eddy turns, peel-outs, and so forth. This also makes a handy location to do 'rescue practice -- taking turns swimming the little rapids, and having someone on shore toss a throw-rope to 'pendulum' the swimmer to shore.
