Moormans

Ten of us ran the Moormans yesterday, at 600 cfs, from the parking area alongside the river about a half mile below the reservoir, down to Millington. It was a delightful 8 mile trip, with no fences and just a few river-wide strainers (all visible well in advance) in addition to all the vegetation growing in the river itself. Despite the 'I-III' rating on this site and the 'II-III' in both Grove and Corbett, we all considered the first few miles a solid class III section. There were two short bony spots where the river braided, but we had plenty of water elsewhere, so the 450 cfs minimum seems about right.
Below White Hall, there were only two tricky spots. The first, in about a half mile, is a class III rock garden. The other is right at the take out bridge, where you should skirt the hole on the left on either side. Take out on downstream river left, and carry to a small parking area (room for 3 cars). Leave a note on your car telling Mr. Davis (the local landowner) that you are on the river and hope he doesn't mind your taking out there.
