Gauge Information
Buckhannon, Left Fork of the Right Fork
Helvetia to Newlonton II-III
River DescriptionThe first couple of miles of this creek - from Helvetia to Czar runs along the road and does not exceed class II. When the creek leaves the road below Czar there are occasional patches of small boulders offering some complexity. The steepest mile is above and below a left bend in the creek in this section below Czar. The creek is small enough that even small trees easily make riverwide strainers.StreamTeam Status: unverified
