River Description

Drag up Crow Hill Road toward the water tower and then march  toward the creek just above the swath cut through the blueberries.  Walking in the meadow will be better than crawling through the slash. Then down to the creek. This puts you below the 3 thirty foot plus falls. You can also access from the Treadwell ditch trail, an easy drag, but  this is one hour versus the 15 minutes of the Crow Hill route. The four drops here look straightforward, but there is a clamshell at the bottom of the fifth pointing upstream. Lots of wood. So far, only the ditch (Class 2 ) up to the first 30' falls (5+)have been run. Four more drops and then a nice finish take you under the bridge. More class two to saltwater.
