Description

These falls are now surrounded by private property. This falls is just around the corner from the put-in (or 1.6 miles from the Co.Rd.CG put-in). You may encounter very aggressive (non-boater-friendly) landowners taking issue with your presence even when not on river-left. Do not dally any longer than necessary here!

The lead-in is pretty straight-forward. The lip of the falls is seriously 'notched' on river left, up against a wall of rock at left shore. A significant hole and boil will exist at medium-to-high flows. The right wall downstream in the pool is undercut, and the boil is likely to push you strongly in that direction! There is a bit of a 'room-of-doom' in the eddy near the falls, so you probably want to try to angle left off the lip and drive out through the boil and downstream.
