The river forms a winding border between RiverClan and the rest of the forest territories. The part of the river that cuts through the gorge is foamy and rough and makes even the strongest swimmer hesitate. Once it leaves the mouth of the gorge, it gradually calms down to a gentle, yet incessant, pull of the water around RiverClan camp. The riverbank is covered in cattails and slopes down into the water. At the water's edge, the ground is loose and gravelly. On most days, the water is clear enough to see vague shapes of rocks at the bottom of the river.

A sturdy, wooden bridge that cuts over the gorge. Twolegs built it so long ago that no living cat can remember a time without it. The bridge is wind-worn and rotted in some places. Twolegs don't use it very often anymore - probably because of its current condition - but RiverClan uses it every moon to get to Fourtrees (and beyond, when the occasion arises). Aside from crossings, some cats like to sit there and watch the water rush between the spaces between the wooden planks. Swimming and fishing here is inadvisable; the current is too strong and even the strongest swimmers may find themselves sucked down underwater if they lean too far over the bridge.
