2) Pinnacle Gap Run: Pinnacle Springs to Highway 65Class I(III)
4.5 Miles
Avg Gradient 13 fpm
Gauge Information
Cadron Creek
River DescriptionThis is a short, frolicking run that is very popular on the weekends. Here the gradient averages 13 feet per mile and the paddler will find rocky shoals (up to Class II+), quiet pools and rugged bluffs. A favorite with whitewater enthusiasts, "surfing" is possible at higher water levels.The put-in is at Pinnacle Springs Campground, one of three public access sites developed by Cadron Creek Outfitters and is near Pinnacle Springs, a flourishing resort community in the 1880's. A dozen bath houses were found in this town, along with two hotels, a college, a saloon, a skating rink, and even a cotton gin. There are inspiring views at Pinnacle Point Gap and Owl's Home Bluff and Bear's Cave are popular attractions. This section has a number of shoals (Right Back At Ya, Daddy's Knee, etc) that require good boat control. One rapid in particular, Cathedral Shoals, is Class III at optimum levels (> 4.5 feet). The rapid is steep and requires maneuvering to avoid large rocks lying in the middle of the channel. This is an excellent winter run with many large ice formations on the bluffs in the colder days of the year. For more information seek out Cadron Creek Outfitters. StreamTeam Status: unverified
