Trip Report

ReporterSteve Scarborough

Most boaters know some of these rapids by their original names. Simple Simon is actually Eagle Rock to most of us. In very cold winters it is a gathering roost for bald eagles who move south to escape the weather. There are reports of over 7 adults at one time, though I have only seen four at the most.

What this site calls Scout's Honor has long been know as Surf City, a much more appropriate name and one that has stood the test of time.

Since the bed and river left bank are in my yard, I would appreciate using the names that have been in place for most of us locals since the 80's.

Thoughts?
