| Account | This wood was easy to see. There are some other twisting rhododendron covered drops where down river visibility is poor and wood could accumulate (especially in the upper section). Be comfortable in catching micro eddies if you choose to boat scout. Bolder/rocky drops typical of the very tiny & narrow upper section. Some areas are so narrow that a short boat will be wider than the creek! Mark was able to navigate his Probe 12 down the creek, but I think he left a lot of red paint/plastic on rocks. We needed more water. This is a very beautiful creek. It does get busy at times, so catch a few eddies and take in the sights. The lower section is more "ledgy" in nature with a couple of slides thrown in for fun. This is what you will see when you are on river right on the down stream side of the bridge. The arrow is pointing to a small step. Make sure the water level is above this step, otherwise you should be arrested for boat abuse :-). Just a tip, take out a few feet above this bridge,, much poison ivy on the banks below the bridge. |
