Class I & II Rapids

We finally get to head back to Lowellville for a fall paddle. Last time we were there for a fall paddle was 2019. Things have changed since our last paddle in spring of 2021 in Lowellville. We will be using the newly constructed water front park at the end of west water st. This beautiful park has a great launch and history of Lowellville. This section has two main rapids and a bunch of little riffles that are class I's
Once we launch we will quickly come to a class I+ rapid called wing dam rapid; but it is an easy straight forward rapid.
The second is just past the 224 bridge,a class II. We call it Radio Rapid (ask Ed Ribgy why) This is a super easy rapid to get through. Line up in the middle and paddle straight through it. Very straight forward when it comes to rapids but it is a fun one to go through.
Make sure to pack a lunch.
