Description

Drainage area at Superior Street is just over 7 square miles.

Steep slides and twisting turns make for a bit of a steep bobsled feel to this run.

Unknown how much has been run ... but from E.4th Street to Hwy.61 is about 0.68 miles and the creek drops 230' for an equivalent gradient of 340 FPM.

(Upstream of that, from Vermillion Road to E.4th Street, it drops 160' in 0.325 miles, for an equivalent gradient over 490 FPM, but in a heavily wooded area.

If the combine distance would all runnable, that would be 390' of drop in 1 full mile.)
