Utility Transect Wave (UTW) and Rock Garden #2
Other43.04377, -88.00587

Description
The penultimate (second last) action on the run is a minor rockgarden rapids.
A (likely defunct) utility conduit cuts across the riverbed in a concrete box/culvert. At moderate to high flows, a fine surfable wave forms here, and has a decent eddy at river-left.
NOTE: After August, 2025 flooding, the river-right wall at this location has collapsed into the creek, and riverbed around the pipe and cement transect has eroded, leaving the whole thing much more exposed. At low flows, water passes under the pipe and cement. This combination of differences will change the behaviour of this feature.
