River Description
From Bergoo to the CR 15/3 bridge that goes to Curtin the rapids are mostly of the cobble bar variety. From this bridge downstream the rapid makers are mostly small ledges with the biggest one known as Parcoal Falls or the PX. Paddlers unfamiliar with this rapid should scout river right or sneak far left.StreamTeam Status: Not Verified
