River Description
This run takes a large rain to pop up and doesn't last long, but it is easy to get to for an after work paddle. Bring shoulder pads and a full face if you plan to run the main event, it is a sharp shale shelf.
Put in at either of the river parks upstream of Delaware Ave/443. Take out at the Rt.32 bridge in the parking lot on river right.
Water quality is decent, but expect to see a lot of debris from the Irene flood towards the bottom. There is at least one F150 in the stream.
River Features
Put-in Slide
Read and run shale slide. No major holes until very high water.
The Meat
Either a slide on river right, or a jumbly drop on river left. Be wary of the 'decapitator' rock on the extreme right end of the drop as it could cause injury or a pin. Scout and portage on river left.
