MORE STUFF NEARBY:

Little Conemaugh River
There is a dangerous section when the elevation drops, and the river turns wicked.  This is the ECHO/PARKHILL section of the river.  When you see a huge green bridge, you are coming near to the drop.  Be careful of the hydraulics, this is a dangerous section, but can be navigated with some foresight. ...Very dangerous river. Not recommended for beginners....Ran this river for the first time today thinking it would be a gentle paddle. WARNING. It is NOT class II. There are many boulders and ledges. Swift current in high water. Hazardous thirty-foot waterfall right after a sharp bend to the left...with no warning. I banged my kayak up really bad taking the fall and nearly died. BE CAUTIOUS....
