River Description

This is the most challenging run on Clear Creek. This section is made up of mostly read and run IV, with two V's and one V+. It is a great after work run, but keep in mind the riverbed is entirely unnatural and general unkind to upside down or swimming boaters.

To get there: The put-in is at mile 262.9 on Hwy 6, at a pullout with large spray painted rocks. The take-out is just downstream of Rigor Mortis after passing under the bridge(mile marker 267.2).
