| Usual Difficulty | V (may vary with level) |
|---|---|
| Length | 2.5 Miles |
| Avg. Gradient | 105 fpm |
Directions: From Greenville, head South on Rte. 6/15 about 6 miles to Upper Shirley
Corner. Bang a right onto Shirley Mills Rd. and continue 1.4 miles to Shirley Pond. The pond is
on the right; the dam, on the left. Put in below the dam on river left.
To takeout: head back toward 6/15. About 50 yards from the dam, take your first right onto an old
railroad bed / logging road. Drive about 2.3 miles to a small stream crossing under the road and
a cabin on the left. The low-water takeout is where this stream meets the East Branch. To get to
the high-water takeout, which adds 1.3 miles to the trip, continue on the logging road and take a
right down a steep washed-out logging road. Park and take out in the clearing where a small trail
leads to the river.
Note: The first complete run of the East Pis was made in 1992 by Scott Murray, Greg Hanlon, and friends.
