When water levels are low, start on the South Branch rather than on Rocky Brook. This drop is about 1 mile below the put-in on the South Branch, just above the confluence with Rocky Branch.
Cannibal Falls is just downstream of the confluence of the Rocky Branch and the South Branch. The landing has a very narrow zone - to the right you break your ankle, to the left - well, we don't want to talk about that. Worse, the approach is tricky class 4, with a large swirly eddy just above the falls, waiting to send you off line. Apparently first run by Willy Kern years ago. No one in our group had the moxie to follow his lead.
