Trip Report

Reporter

We ran the box at about 850-900 on 2/17/2008 from Rye Creek. We didn't encounter any barbed wire. We had some good surfing (front only) about 100 yards after the confluence of Rye and Tonto. The canyon was very beautiful. 2 things about the Put-in: 1. There was not a gate to go through 2. It is about 2-3 miles from Jake's Corner. Take a right 50 yards before the one lane bridge that goes over rye creek. Take that road about 1/8 of a mile to a dirt pullout on your left (before private land-looking gate.) and hike down to Rye Creek. Enjoy!
