River Description

Named Rapids include:
Gristmill Falls
Gladiator
Pillage & Plunder
Goliath

These rapids are above the second footbridge allowing an easy retreat if you find yourself in over your head. There is a road that is access to rental cabins that you can use to walk back to the parking lot.

Shortly afterwards you will hit the main stem of Manns Creek and continue down to the New River just across from Cunard. Standard takeout these days is at Keeneys creek. Makes for a reasonable shuttle.
