	Stoneycreek River
		From there to its end, sections of river hold some pollution-tolerant species of fish but aquatic life is far less diverse and in times of high acidity, the fish either die or migrate to cleaner streams.
		When the river flow is high, the ratings on several rapids actually go to the highest rating Class 5, promoting even the most experienced kayakers to stay off the water.
		The two-mile James E. Mayer Trail is extremely popular with local residents, running between the river and a wooded hillside from the city's Moxham neighborhood to the village of Riverside in Stoneycreek Township.

		Use all the resources available to you--guidebooks, trip leader or other experienced paddler's advise, river gauges, and--most of all, your own judgement based on your experience and skill.
