The brush piles and log jams made for a moderately technical trip which would probably have been dangerous in high water. Railroad tracks are always nearby and trains are frequent.

But the gradient through this section made paddling upstream seem more difficult than other typical Ozark streams. Paddled up to the railroad trestle and floated back.
