Cove Run Rapid

Lastly the river runs through a winding class-III rapid that leaves ample evidence of the lake's power to emaciate good whitewater.  The banks are now high and muddy.  The Cove Run takeout will be either wet and slippery or dry and slippery if these last 2 rapids aren't buried.  The mud is the price extracted for not having to paddle lake water.  If you can find a way to scramble up Cove Run Creek to higher ground you might save yourself some grief.  Gotta love it!!  Rapids descriptions by StreamKeeper Paul Herring.
