This drop appeared to pass under the boulder that we scouted from.

Scout high river left here. River is splits around a big truck size boulder. RIght side is a fun double drop into aerated water. Left run is a violent drop that appears to run by and under the giant boulder you can stand on, off the river left bank.

This is the ladder at the Rockin Art Ranch. It is private property. The walkway could be a hazard as it is built right in the waterway. This is probably 300-500 cfs. From here down it is an easy class III fun run to the bridge that crosses the canyon off frontier road. There are 3 50 foot long bizarre log rafts you will need to portage in order to get out.

Gods Pocket run has alot of debris potential and sieves. The rapids are pool drops behind behemoth boulders that clog the stream nearly from wall to wall. The cliffs are from 200+ to 350 ft high. Most are shear. It would be very difficult to bail on most of the 9 m? Gods Pocket run. Takeout is either at or near the Rockin Art Ranch or continue down through the Class III section another 5 miles+ to the bridge over Chevelon Canyon at the north end of the canyon. When the gauge is reading, it will take approximately 24 hours for water to reach the God's Pocket section.

We chose to portage right and drop the last half of this constriction.

15 miles up from Winslow off of 99, Take Stetson road and take the 45degree left after the cattle guard until you hit the canyon. There's a hike down and you will take out at the bridge on Frontier road north
