Several paddlers descended the Prospect section of West Canada Creek in the summer of 2021 as part of a formal controlled whitewater flow study. The results of this study form the basis for mitigation of the ongoing impacts of the hydropower project dewatering the river. Paddlers selected optimal flow ranges and seafely descended the river several times.
