NIce Intermediate class II. Ran on 10/06/2018 at approximately 2.60 ft. in perception swiftwater kayaks. My girlfriend and I are still learning how to read the water having only played on class I and one other class II the Middle Yough both great runs to learn on. I did take a swim on this stretch of river but not due to it being a technically difficult rapid more so due to inexperience and that I was running too close to my partner and wasn't able to read the best route until I took the wrong one lol. I guess everyone gets dumped at some point and that's a learning experience as well. A couple pointers for those planning on running this stretch of river there is no cell service in the area so make sure you screenshot directions before you leave to the take out at Markelton and from there to the put in at Rockwood. Plus directions home. We had to just kind of blindly follow one lane roads through corn fields following the lay of the land trying to stay close to the river to find the put in after dropping off the takeout vehicle. Also be aware that there is a PA Fish & Boat Commission official that regularly monitors the park at Markleton so make sure you have your PA Fish & Boat Commission launch permit stickers on your watercraft if exiting river left at the launch area or alternatively exit river right under the bridge to avoid any hassles. There is a 150 dollar fine for not having the stickers so keep that in mind.
