Stay off this section in the summer unless you like drunken tubers. Primarily from the 7 Islands Rd. Bridge 2 tube operations flood this part of the river on weekends all summer. Moratoc park were the take out is has a nice rapid, but there are always kids swimming in it. Paddle above or below this section unless it is a weekday or too cold for the swimmers and tubers.

It is a nice little bit of river in the spring. However, the trash from the tubes ruins it. Run the section from 89 to the hanging rock access on Flinchum road above this section. It is a much nicer float, but it is not listed here for some reason. The section below to snow creek confluence is nice also.
