Marble to redstone

Edit. This is for the marble to redstone section.  I posted this under the incorrect section.  I will repost

Ran this on 6.19.23.

Water level was rising according to the gauge.  Probably in the 1400 to 1500 range.

I would describe this as a class 3+/4- at this level.   Although I am an easy coast boater so that may bias my rating. The bigger rapids were very continuous for an east coast boater.   The biggest rapid was after the second culvert.

We put on at the town of marble.  Once the river starts to parallel hwy 143, the river goes under two road culverts.  Each with 3 openings. Scout these culverts when running shuttle for wood.  Each of these culverts had wood in them. Also scout for Eddy service above if you need to get out.

We took out at redstone, but there is also an east exit above the first culvert
