River Description

From Bill Tuthill:

This scenic stretch can be run after a large rainstorm. The put-in requires a carry from State Park headquarters down to the creek. Be on guard for logjams. There is a large one with huge redwood trees about a third of the way down. Another big one is about two thirds of the way down. Carry around, or take out above the dam in Memorial Park. When the creek joins the road, rapids become more III'ish. If you have time to run this section, take out at the first bridge on Pescadero Road.
