River Description

See G. Amaral, Idaho: the Whitewater State (Watershed, 1992).
Lat / Longitude data are very approximate.

This run is a beautiful canyon consisting of mellow class II-III whitewater and three class V drops. The old Idaho guide book describes this as a scenic run with three portages. Other people think of it as a fun run with three good rapids and some flat water. Either way it’s beautiful and worth the effort. Also, generally runs all season.
