Might be Sandy Beach rapids at low water. I don't recall perfectly.
Taken from river left on what is likely private property.

Put in, in the town of Remington has no parking signs everywhere, spoke with friendly gal at BP gas station just on edge of town near bridge, you can park directly across from the BP at that small gravel lot--really easy walk to put in, drop boats at put in first, no berm on road. Take out at Kelly's Ford has a wooden ramp...very nice. Level was 4.34ft today, 46F air temp, sunny and the best way to spend the day after Christmas! Morgan suffered through the bountiful flat water that runs pretty much 75% of this run until we got to the class 1+ perhaps class 2 rapids near the end. Suspect Class II+ rating comes from the technical nature of the rapids when they do appear, beautiful rock gardens. Keep your eyes peeled! Great place to do river exercises as Morgan put me through ferrying back and forth across the rocky rapids, eddy hopping behind boulders from one side of river to the other as well as side surfing baby ledges. Will come back at 6ft to see some of those big boulders buried with water and producing yummy holes to play in.

There will soon be a public put-in just above the bridge, so the grumpy landowner issues will end.

Definitely leave your car in town. There is a town lot behind the Exxon and the walk is not bad. If you leave your car on the southeast side of 29 the landowner will egg it. I plan on disturbing all the wildlife, urinating and crapping on private land, shooting, littering and all because I am special.

There are occasional landowner problems at the put-in. Keep this in mind and keep your visit brief here. If you see fresh
