Robert Farmer---I looked at this a little bit last weekend. I saw some local guys taking off it. Apparently, the approach is different than the description above. To put-in, turn west off of Route 381 at Camp Christian, a few miles north of the town of Mill Run and 0.2 mile south of the steel truss bridge over Indian Creek Reservoir. Park in the obvious parking lot and walk 1/2 mile to put in below the dam. The local guys whom I saw said that they took out on river left and walked up an old road back to the put-in (@5 miles). There is a gauge at the bridge over Indian Creek at Route 653, just a mile or two north of the steel truss bridge and about a mile east. The first day, the gauge showed 3.5 and looked too high for first-timers (me); the next day, the gauge read 2.75 and looked good, but the day was cold and snowy, so I passed.
