Scout all 4 drops before running, this is unrunnable at many water levels. For the first section
put in above the Waterworks park and try for the far left drop over the dam. The second drop may be
Class VI, to view it follow the footpath down to the Rt1 bridge and look upstream. At high water
levels there is a huge ramp of water that I'd love to see somebody try. There is a sneak river
right but accessing it is very tough. The thrid drop can very rarely be made. It is a 8-10' poor
over dam which can be scouted at Bridge St. A sweet surf wave develops just below the Sparhawk Mill
building, park in their dirt lot for some park'n'play. The last drop can be viewed from Grist Mill
park or the Rt88 bridge. It is generally runnable at all levels. Watch out at high water, the tide
may have changed while you were paddling and turned the last rapid under the bridge into into a
giant hole with lots of recirc.
