Though I have not paddled the stretches between Foster Park to Newton Falls dam and Newton Falls Dam to Swift Park in a couple years, you will likely encounter a number trees blocking the river at different points. This will mean a carry around or over them.

Since in another post you mention being new to kayaking, please be aware of the dangers posed by low head dams. There are several between Foster Park and Warren. Do not approach them from upriver/above or downriver/below. Carry around them.
