Orbeton is actually a tributary to Sandy River, not Sandy Stream

Named rapids in sequence are Grisham Falls, First Island, Second Island and Bridge Rapid.
Grisham is a short rapid with potential for injury or pinning. Scouting and set up safety is s good ides here. 8 of 12 opted to portage o my trip in June of 2013.
We scouted First Island, which is long but manageable.
Bridge Rapid can be viewed from the bridge at the takeout. If you run the slot at left of the main current to enter the rapid, you will be set up to easily work left for a clean run.
