River Description

Fun little creek needs a decent amount of rain to run. A few shoals and 2-3 class 2 rapids that could turn into class 3 at higher levels. At lower levels, there could be some trees blocking the way. Towards the end, there is a man-made road that could have a sieve but I will check it out and update the page. I would recommend at least 3 feet to run it in a kayak.
