This interesting dirt bluff is about halfway from the road 216 put-in to Woodlake.
This large diversion structure divides the river into the St. John's river to the right and Mill Creek to the left.
The reversals on this weir look to be of the classic death trap variety.
Looking upstream from the walkway on the diversion weir at McKay Point. You can hear the noise from the drop, for a long ways upstream and the current slows to a crawl. Portage on river right, close to the weir.
Looking downstream towards the Highway 245 bridge south of Woodlake. There is good river access for take-out or put-in on the river right, downstream side of the bridge. There is room for parking on the shoulder of the highway by the bridge and a trail leading to the water.
