A few scenes from a morning walk along the Cuyahoga River through downtown and just downstream of Kent, Ohio.
Cuyahoga River in Kent. It's a mixed bedrock-alluvial channel in this reach and there's a little bit of class 1-2 whitewater through town. Photo by A. Jefferson, August 2012.
A bit farther downstream, there's a nice gravel point bar that appears to be a popular spot to put in for float trips. The Kent State Rec Center runs multiple trips per day from here on summer weekends. The gravel bar pictured above seems to mark the start of a fully alluvial reach, with no whitewater. Photo by A.

Here's a view looking upstream from Fred Fuller Park in Kent. There's some nice wood in the stream through here and a few small patches of wetlands along the banks. Photo by A. Jefferson
