This is a fantastic river section. It runs all summer long but it is easier in late July-August. At high level, this is a class 4-5. At low level (at the present time), it is a 3-4+ technical. You can run it with a creek or a river runner. It is boney and swimming is not recommended.

The river can be run twice as it's a relatively short section (6 km). The plan is to run Saturday and Sunday. There is camping at the Put-in for $6.75/day.
