Trip Report

ReporterStephen Strange

We paddled this in June 2002 at 660cfs. We put in on Emerald Lk. and took out at Pine Grove Campground. The average gradient is near 150fpm with the beginning a little bit steeper. There are no significant individual drops, just 2.something miles of non-stop class III-IV boogie water. The water quality was beautiful when we were there, and the scenery at the put-in was great. It's in the guidebook, 'Montana Surf'.
