Re-visting the accident site (Nancy Kell's) provided some valuable insight on a few unique dangers. The accident took place just below the confluence of Collins Run (river left), there's a very large strainer on the far left side which is easily avoided to the right of it. Below that strainer is where the real danger lies. The left bank is heavily undercut via erosion and develops lots of root balls. The strainers and root balls are cleared out but it's only a matter of time before new ones are uncovered. Stay 10' from the left shore to avoid entrapment along the river side left bank.
