The following are the sections of river to be covered in the guidebook. Note that some of the river sections end at confluences with larger rivers and may not be accessible there. In those cases, you must paddle out on the larger river. When ending on reservoirs, the elevation is given for the riverbed (for gradient calculation purposes).
