Piney Creek

Hwy 70 to 27

Class 3+ feel with one legitimate class 4 (baby gorilla) but intimidating due to the amount of strainers and wood. We put on at 2.25 ft on the whites bridge gauge and took out at almost 4 ft.
At the put in we parked on the river left downstream side of the bridge and just left the car on the shoulder of the road. We slid our boats and our butts down the same side under the bridge.
A quarter mile in there is a 2 tier slide that we ran left, immediate following it the river bends to the right and there is baby gorilla. We scouted on the left and it went easy. There is a river wide huge LOG a quarter mile below baby gorilla, the river splits into channels right below the baby gorilla (we ran far left) and the second time it does this the bottom of all channels are blocked by this big log. There are no easy eddies above the log in the left channel (you can grab brush and get out) but the river right channel is barely moving and not hard to get out and walk river right. Lots of boogie rapids, some log jams and lots of living strainers. The Zigzag slide was awesome and went easy down the middle. Mammys and Fall creek come in on river right just before the confluence with Whites. Lots of miles but with the flow we had we did it in 2 hours.
