River Description
If this run ever got paddled before we did it, I'm unaware of it. It's a good example of what you can find locally if you're willing to look.
The put-in involves a few hundred yards of hiking to the water, and the whole run has an exploratory feel to it.
It's small, with a lot of strainer potential, so you need to keep your eyes open. There are one or two places that could approach class 3 if the water got high enough, but is pretty much a small, creeky class 2 run through woods and farms.
