Deer creek is a spectacular run not only for the whitewater but for the scenery as well. We did three days and two nights through this highly remote canyon. Starting in the pines and paddling through multiple ecosystems, you end up in the valley paddling on what feels like a whole different creek. The water was very low, so there were a few portages and some pretty junky rapids, but it was a whole lot of fun. Very manageable and helped me learn a lot. Big thanks to Dave for looking at most rapids and picking perfect lines!
