River Description

OK, I'm 'cheating' a bit here, lumping a bunch of streams together in one description/page. It seemed a shame not to have mention of these creeks on this AW river inventory, but it also seemed near absurd to detail each separately, as they all fall into a category I like to call "stupid boater tricks" or "micro creeks".

Within the city limits of Duluth, there are a good number of creeks with incredible gradients and amazing slides and drops. To the best of my knowledge, most (if not every one) of these creeks have been run by area boaters.

The odds of any out-of-town (or at least out-of-immediate-area) boater catching them runnable would be quite slim. Hard-core boaters may watch for the few days (or few hours!) when they may be at 'runnable' levels, for an unbelievable 'in town' rush.

The following table hints at the variety and challenge available.
(Listing is from North to South through town.)

We would love to have first-hand reports (information, photos, videos) from anyone who has run any of these (or other 'in-town' runs around Duluth).
