Time 11 am
Class I & II Rapids
8.5 Miles long

This section has two main rapids and a bunch of little riffles.
Once we launch we will quickly come to a class I+ rapid called wing dam rapid; but it is an easy straightforward rapid. Once we hit the Island right after wing dam rapid we may want to portage a couple hundred feet around and get back into continue the paddle if it is really low water level
The second is just past the 224 bridge, we call it Radio Rapid (ask Ed Ribgy why) There is a tree off to the right in the rapid will have to go straight through or a little to the left to avoid it.
Make sure to pack a lunch.
