Length 10 Miles
Class I+ (II) Rapids

We will try something a little different and combine two shorter sections into a longer paddle.
We will meetup at Girard and be ready to do the shuttle a little after 10:30 am. Once we hit the water we will encounter several rapids spaced out on this paddle with a mandatory Portage around division/crescent st dam.First rapid is Trestle Rapid (Class I+) then down river we will portage the dam. Then we will encounter Wood Mill Rapid (Class I). After we pass the B&O we will encounter Marshall St Bridge Rapid (Class II) with 2 chutes to go though; far river left and far river right.
Then our next rapid in our journey through Youngstown will be Cement Plant Wave Train (Class I). After we pass Center St Bridge we will go through Rebar Rapd (Class II) and right after that we will hit Iron Bridge Wave train (Class I Rapid). Then it is a nice easy paddle to the take out.
Please Text me or call me with any question or to let me know you are coming.
