Paddled on 6/19 at +4500 cfs. What a ride! Pleasantly surprised with the continuous rapids. Even at higher water the rapids on this creek would not wash out. Strainers always a concern but Rand gave us heads up about the two major ones. Spread the word about this gem.

Other people run this creek? Wow ... thought I had it to myself. Anyone check for strainers yet? During the year you usually get a bunch from twin rocks to the rosebud bridge.

This is the South Branch takeout at the confluence with the North Branch. You paddle across the N.B. and beach. Then carry up to the bike trail and across this bridge to SR3045
