River Description
From the listed put-in, boaters will likely encounter areas of swiftwater often flowing through
overhanging alder. (While there are virtually no real rapids here, high water may make passage
that much more problematic!) Pinnacle Falls, a big drop and portage for most sane individuals, is
2 miles into this section. There are relatively few other memorable rapids, so this is a reach
which is seldom boated.
It might also be noted that, while maps may show a 'Wylie Falls' about a mile upstream of our
recommended put-in, all reports are that it is little more than a beaver dam and minor rapids,
not worth the bother to find or boat.
