Good day on teh Cache Creek WIlderness Run. We had about a dozen paddlers in a group organized by Jerry Meral. A bit of bush/tree whacking on the North Fork before the confluence with main. The North Fork Cache Creek near Chalk Mountain guage was at 2.94 ft, I would estimate it was 300- 500 cfs. The flows on the Main was robust and very fun. Big wave trains and serval holes big enough to surf a raft. Most of the bigger rapids are towards the bottom of the run. This is very much a wilderness run and a beautiful place to be in the springtime.
