There are a few waterfalls on this run but there does not seem to be much in between. Some waterfalls are downstream of the Hwy. 169 Bridge near Gurney. Upstream from here is Foster Falls which might have some potential but there would be a lot of flatwater. Gurney Falls are further upstream at the northern edge of Upson.
