River Description
Probably the uppermost 'reasonable' reach of the Middle Branch Escanaba starts at the Greenwood Reservoir and Dam. As with the subsequent sections, this is rather 'lake/drop' (pool/drop taken to an extreme). As a result, while average gradient figures don't look all that great (compared to many class III/IV runs), the main drops here will definitely catch your attention (and merit scouting)!

Flow seemed low, but this was during a dry stretch of the summer, so who knows. Had a funky smell too.
