The S Br Peme is a short run that may serve well as a "chaser" to a day of paddling due to it's easy access from Hwy 141/8 in Pembine. The upper portion of this reach from the Hwy 141/8 bridge (center of three) in Pembine contains some smaller drops for a warm-up before the main drop is reached. (This is a smaller stream, so one will likely encounter deadfall.)
The main drop we refer to as "Kremlin Falls" though the local name is not known at this time. The entrance to this drop is right at the Kremlin Rd bridge as the river drops about 50' in the next 1/3 mile. The current picks up speed through class II boulderbed, then becomes more complicated and climaxes with an angled falls of perhaps 10' in a narrow constriction. Class II run-out takes you from immediately below the falls until past the railway bridge.
The drop can be scouted or spectated from the railway river right.
Carry back up to the railway and about 0.2 miles back to Kremlin Rd.
This may pair well with its sister reach on the N Br Pemebonwon located several
miles north.
