This is a 13.5 mile paddle on the Brazos River.  This section contains some good flows but at normal levels, no rapids.  Usually excellent fossil hunting on the bars and rock exposures, and a number of freshwater mussel species.  The current is pretty good, and there are quite a number of interesting sand bars to stop on.  

Skill Level:  Novice.  Generally flat water, and for one of these paddles, not overly long.  Could be some more interesting things exposed at really low flows though.
