River DescriptionThe normal put-in is reached by hiking (with your boat) up a hiking trail to a bridge just above the slot canyon. The river is potentially runnable from a big falls 1/2 mile further upstream if some 'logging' were done.The "moves" on this tiny creek primarily involve staying upright and avoiding high speed impact injuries (to body and/or boat). In general, this is more akin to a bobsled run in a boat than it is to kayaking in the usual sense. Short boats are highly recommended, as are elbow pads. See Midwest River Inventory for photos.
