Most of the river is Class I+. The challenge is mainly
to keep from hitting the cliff walls that the run goes
by. There are 3 rapids that I can remember. The first
two are easy II and the last is a shallow boulder
garden that runs for a 100m or so before a turn and
some medium sized waves. Class II+ or III-. This is
one of the prettiest rivers I have seen. There is a
small playspot for kayaks about 50m below the put in
bridge.
The majority of the run is distinguished by the
spectacular canyons it goes through. The first
canyon is fairly wide open with fairly low walls.
Another section has extremely tall cliffsbut is still
fairly open. The last section reminds me of a flooded
slot canyon in Utah. It is very windy with cliffs
extending right into the river.
