Description
C Section is a nice mellow desert float with some killer fishing at the right water level. Some great river camps exist on this section too. You should probably combine this section with another stretch of the Green to make it worth your while.
Note that the bridge immediately below Indian Crossing becomes unpassable around 5000 CFS, and tight (no umbrellas, etc.) above about 3,500 CFS.
