Eno

This is lower drop of the rapid at Cabe's Ford ledge. It is just upstream from the footbridge/swinging bridge on river left. It's easily scouted from the trail that runs alongside it. This drop is best run in the center, you don't want to get pushed too far right or left. The USGS gauge downstream@ the Colemill road bridge was at 3.43' when this photo was taken. At this level the rapid is a solid class III, and fairly technical. Scout and use caution.

This is the upper drop of the rapid@ Cabe's Ford Ledge. The easiest line is far left, though this drop can be run center at this level. If you enter from the center you will need to do a quick S-turn before hitting the lower drop in order to avoid being jammed up in the rocks to the right. The USGS gauge downstream@ Colemill road was at 3.43' when this photo was taken. At this level the rapid is a solid class III, and fairly technical. Scout and use caution.

The large tree that one spanned the river on the section between fews ford and pleasent green dam just past the little red car is gone. However there is a new one on the next section past the cole mill road bridge. The park ranger cut some of it out and it is passable depending on the level. It is in a calm section and poises little threat.
