Lead-in rapid to Devils Kitchen (small photo)

Report

Account	Shot of one of the last rapids on the run from the Yellow Bluff Trail overlook Devils Kitchen Rapid, first big rapid on the river. Its within the first two miles of the run and marks the beginning of the first long stretch of rapids. It has a committing lead in rapid. Easy walk on the left. This is the lead-in to Devils Kitchen. Its really all one rapid cause there really are no real eddies and only seconds before your in the main drop. This is a stretch of class 3+ boogie below the kitchen before the numerous class 4 boulder garden rapids appear that the Caney Fork is infamous for. This is a view from the Yellow Bluff trail. Only a .3 mile walk from Scott's Gulf road and its the next trailhead past Virgin Falls trailhead on the left. Well worth the walk. Typical of the big boulders strewn about this stream. Choose your path wisely in places like this because the lines are sometimes tight and peppered with undercuts. For the full-sized version of this picture, click here.
