Here is a gem of a creek that locals have just found, the run is only a mile long if you want to do the whole run,
otherwise if you only have one car you can paddle in and hike out. There are nice trails along the whole run, it goes through a park I
just can't remember which one. You can either put in above or below the first drop, it is a 3 foot drop with a sticky hole but is fairly easy
to skirt. After the put in drop you will have some class II small rapids until the second drop. This one you get out on river left to scout
and see which line you want to take. I have only taken the second slot from river right, it is shallow so you will be bouncing down the drop,
but be careful not to pencil in because it is only a couple feet deep down below. It looks like at higher flows that there is a straight
falls on far river right the could be runnable, and the far river left line in my opinion isn't worth doing (to much carnage) and the
left center line has been run but what you cant see in the picture is that their is actually rock just a little ways above the water, so
when you land you will hit rock. After that drop you will encounter some more class II-II+ rapids until you reach a bridge, take out here
to scout. This one is Little Norway. Scout as much as you want and try to pic the best line, the line we have always chosen on the top
is to run just left of the hole in the center, scrape down along side of it until you get to the lip of the second drop. Make sure you
run this one center or left the right channel has a log you will hit if you run it on that side. Then just bounce down the second part
of the drop into a nice pool. After Little Norway the river goes back to class II until the takeout.
