Gauge Information
River Description
This is a difficult run for most paddlers. Scout 20' waterfall. While all rapids have been run,
most people walk a few. Generally a long, hard, rewarding day.
Due to some persons trashing the boy scout camp, we can no longer park on the property. You must
park at the turnaround just prior to the camp. The camp ranger is David Michael, phone
256-228-6913.
See also the description in

which points out that the putin is actually on Bryant Creek, which one floats for almost 3 miles
before the confluence with Jones.
