River Description

This run is infamous for containing Looking Glass Falls. Noted boater Corran Addison ran the falls in the early 90's sustaining a major back injury. Supposedly he was wearing a batman costume while running the drop.

Looking glass falls was later run successfully in January 1996 by Russ Kulmar.

But enough about the outer edge of boating. Above the falls is supposed to be some nice class 3 and 4 creeking including Sliding Rock and Super Sliding Rock. Super Sliding Rock can get up to class 5 with high flows. The entire run is roadside. Its probably best for mere mortals to take out above the falls.
