River Description
Small river in far northern NH. Starts out steep and ledgy with lots of blind corners, gradually diminishes in gradient the further downstream paddled.
The old beta was saying that the put in where merely two miles upstream. Up there, it's a really small stream with lots of log jam and a waterfall.

Trip Reports
Log in to add a reportWe try to paddle another stream, the Willard stream, after a mile of dodging fallen trees in a flooded river we change or plan and went on the mohawk. We got on the water below the dam, but Samuel upstream and run the dam... didn't look bad. We portage the 90 Right Angle Rapids on the right, we would have needed to walk on somebody's lawn on the other side. The remaining of the river was really nice. Lots of wave train at that level. We stop near Cotnoir Drive.
The level of the Diamond river was 1100 CFS rising.
