Shoals (deadfall area)

A bit downstream of the prior rock garden area, after passing river-left gabion basket shores (wire cages filled with rock), lies an area of rocks and gravel deposits. The deepest channel is to river-left, while center-to-right is shallow gravel shoals.

For years, a large tree has blocked the creek here, but as of 2026.04.22 has washed out.

Before putting on, while setting shuttle, stop about 200' west/upstream of the final bridge (where the USGS gauge is) to walk across a finger-like clearing and into the woods to see this area of river.
