<br />undisturbed. Some selective access and habitat improvements will be made, and the opportunity <br />exists to partner with the Division of Wildlife in order to enhance fish habitat and create high <br />quality "holding" water (see Appendix 2). The relatively low grade ofthis stretch and the bend <br />in the river sets this preserve apart from the rest of the whitewater park, providing visual <br />isolation for those wishing to fish in an undisturbed setting. The lack of white water specific <br />improvements will encourage quiet pass through for kayakers moving from the top two features <br />to the next section. <br /> <br />Section 3: This section includes the last major in-stream features. Two hydraulics will be <br />positioned in a similar fashion as the first two, but these will be more directed towards park-and- <br />play kayaking. The third and final feature is not only going to be the largest and most significant <br />for play boating, but it will be the prevailing spot for people out of their kayaks as well. This <br />area is geared for large groups of people, and a stone terraced bank will function as an access <br />point to connect the trails with the whitewater park. Because ofthis area's ability to <br />accommodate large groups it is ideal for a competition venue and other events that will bring <br />people to the Arkansas River Valley from all across the country. <br /> <br />Finally, the pool located behind the last hydraulic will be deepened and expanded to provide a <br />swimming and whitewater recreation area for users of all ages and abilities. Interaction between <br />the in-stream whitewater improvements and the bank environment is critical at this site where <br />pedestrians and swimmers will be prevalent. All of these proposed improvements are intended <br /> <br /> <br />The existing <br />cliffs, seen here, <br />are the dominant <br />natural feature <br />highlighted by <br />the Section 3 <br />improvements. <br /> <br />to blend seamlessly into the natural environment while providing enhanced recreation at the site <br />for both paddlers and bank based users. <br />
