Neat! Does yours have as funny an origin story as ours? It seems that one of the early white expeditions had a fun time in the redwood forest; you know, walk six feet, climb over a four foot tall trunk, walk four feet, climb over a six foot tall trunk... When they
finally reached the river, tempers exploded and they had a big fight over which way to go next. Hence, Mad River.
