This is a 16 mile paddle on the Colorado River.  This river section is the course for the LaGrange Kanoe Klassika.  There is usually good current flow, interesting substrate and the possibility of finding some interesting mussels.  Birding is also usually very good here.

Skill Level:  Novice.  Generally flat water, with a few sweepers in the curves.  Lots of nice places to stop and cool off and generally a good current.
