Description

The river takes a quick right-then-left as it heads toward a railroad embankment. It encounters a bit of a shoals, and (at moderately high water) a minor wave-train may be found in this area. At low flows it will barely rate any classification, at higher flows it may merit a class II-. Just before the left-bend, tight to river-left, at some flows, water flowing over a boulder creates a funky little surfable hole. As with most things on this run, we're not talking about great freestyle play or anything, just a minor surf wave.
