There is one more big drop if you continue on past the bridge that begins the hot springs town limits. It is about a ten foot double ledge. A rock splits the narrow channel. The left is tight, but doable, the right leads into a rock, so you better hug the rock splitting the river. The hole after the second drop looks rough. In the pool after the drops there is a submerged rock in the middle and some wood on the left. For a better description, this drop is in the Benner guidebook.
