Check with the Army Corp of Engineers out in Newton. ACE maintains a
large flood control project (or they did when I lived there), and since
GRASS was developed by CERL (also Army), maybe they have digital
coverages of the river in that form as p/d.  You could also download the
USGS DLG data for this area from FTP site edcftp.cr.usgs.gov. Don't know
if that resolution is good enough for you, though.
