Typical scenery of the upper 5 miles of flat water.
The river left side of this 2-3 foot ledge (right in the photo) is full of pin rocks & a nasty hole feeds an undercut. The pourover in the middle (left in the photo)is a nice drop. The river right side of the rapid is not shown & is a shoal.
It is hard to tell in the photo, but these are 2 foot standing waves.
In the red circle is a two foot drop on river right (left in photo). The rest is a medium shoal.
