coming from Iron Mountain it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, if you're not familiar with the area there's a road map further down the page. This stretch is mid length, good for a one day paddling trip. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds
nearby. There are plenty of other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well.
