This small tributary of the Michigamme won't excite the seasoned whitewater paddler, but should give beginners a nice taste of tame rapids almost throughout its length. Expect tough going in a few spots, as the river may become tough to follow in a few areas of braided channels. It is likely that some of the 'drops' (and portages) will be over beaverdams or logjams.

There are a few options for shorter trips. We are uncertain regarding access at listed put-in and take-out. It is possible permissions may need be sought for one or both, if property involved is private.
