Good to get section of a home town river in that I have never seen. It was pretty low, particularly on the upper end. However, I never got my feet wet. One mandatory portage about a mile in over Dye CreeK Low Water bridge, best to portage on river right.

Not much in the way of scenery or rapids (at this low level), or believe it or not, pools. Pretty continuous flow. We were able to surf 3/4 micro waves and got a lot of practice with ferries, eddies, and peel outs.

Any day on the river is a good day,
