River Description

Downstream of Prickett Dam paddlers will encounter numerous areas of shallows and rocky shoals. There may be some minor play (depending upon flows).

Anyone who has paddled this stretch is highly encouraged to provide their feedback. Is it worthwhile? Is there any real play?

(That would be sweet, in an area much more known for creek-boating runs!)

Or is this totally not worth any true whitewater boater ever wasting time to pursue? We need your input!

If you have looked (or tried to look) at this location, please help your fellow boaters by adding a report (complete with photos/videos if you have them).

NOTE: All flow ranges are merely tentative.  Create a 'Trip Report' stating listed flow and your impressions (low/moderate/high).
