Simons Rapids
This apears to be a single ledge/boulder-dam drop.
Priest Lake Rapids
A small island appears to split the flow. A low-grade rapids is apparent on river-left, and (logically) there may also be something on river-right.
Boars Rapids
Rock Ledge Rapids
The name suggests that a 'ledge' might exist, though none is particularly apparent on the satellite view.
Rocky Carry Rapids
unnamed rapids
A rapids (unnamed, at least on the topo maps) exists just before the suggested take-out for this run.
