Backbarrow bridge
Backbarrow bridge
This rather attractive bridge hides an interesting whitewater feature from the casual road user. The meat of this grade 4 drop is right underneath the bridge, making it hard to inspect at higher water levels, although a set of steps river right just above the bridge enable a climb down to get a good look if the rocks are not covered. This photo was taken after running the rapid in a pretty low water level.
