Going through wooded bluffs, riffles, riprap and you will find there is access to campsites. At the put-in, the river goes through a canyon, the bottom of a 200-foot valley. There is a canoe access at the Pioneer Road, for those that would like to finish the trip earlier or start it at a lower spot downriver. There also is a change in the landscape as the valley widens. The riverbed becomes sand and gravel; there are farms, wildflowers and wooded ridge. When it splits into two channels, go right or you will miss the take out. Depending on the water level, you will take out upstream or downstream from the bridge.
