You do pass a gun range (right at Pleasant Valley) and the water ... |

White Rock Creek
| 18 miles away
Not a bad run, a little shallow in places though. Take out point requires dragging boat up a steep incline. Also there are lots of man made obstacles to avoid, sever man hole covers protruding from the bottom. There are also 2 manmade water falls that will sneak up on you.... |
