Ran from the campground above Grandjean to the hot springs at Bonneville. This is mostly a II run, with some exceptions. We encountered a log portage above the great III+ canyon that is roadside on the way to putin. Next time I'd launch just above this canyon. We had another portage below this canyon. The only significant drop on this section is visible from the road where Canyon Creek enters the run. This a great III-IV drop with some good features at 2300. Very scenic with views of the sawtooth range from the top of the run.
