I ran the Assabet at about 4.5 feet on 6/4/06. It's not too technical, but I would definitely call it a class III run at that level due to wood and bridge pylons.

We took out a few hundred yards below Maynard Elks (I'm not sure you can see that building from the river) where the river broadens and flattens out. The dam is significantly further downstream.
