Rte. 1 (4.5 miles NW of Finland) to Finland (5 miles)Class II-III
5 Miles
Avg Gradient 71 fpm
River DescriptionShort road-side carry in.The first mile (to Crown Creek confluence) is very narrow and fast with few eddies. This is short boat, technical maneuvering, rock dance water. While the rapids do not break above class II, boaters must have sufficient skills to react quickly and catch small eddies in this tight, technical water. A trail bridge in this section acts as an impassable strainer (mandatory portage). Strainers have otherwise seldom been a problem, since generally the banks are lined with alder, making 'brush-bashing' a more frequent concern. This reach makes a likely extension for a run on the upper Baptism. StreamTeam Status: unverified
