Exit from LONG underground

Exit from LONG underground

Description

PLEASE TAKE NOTE: the 'Mile' markers on these early features are NEGATIVE, to indicate that they are NOT part of our recommended run. They are being included primarily as warning for anyone who may think of exploring further upstream.

Technically, this is apparently a tributary called Lyons Park Creek. The flow comes out of a long (and, I believe, grated/non-enterable from the top end) tunnel. There is virtually no reasonable 'staging area' from which to launch into this cement ditch, and the police department has posted signs prohibiting entry into the cement ditch.

There are a few interesting looking jumps in the next 0.4 mile. Even if it weren't prohibited, it would be quite difficult to find flows at the 'goldilocks' range: not too low (totally scrapey), not too high (washed-out and impossible to get out of), but 'just right'.
