Rock Creek

I paddled, starting midway down this run to the reservation boundary at 1,800 cfs in June of 2019. The reservation land begins at the large public fishing ponds along the river. The first couple miles below the dam was solid class V with wood at this level, so I opted to put in at the bottom of that. It was sustained class III water features with class IV risk and maneuvering skills required because of braided channels and fallen trees. Normally this stretch is mostly dewatered to pump water to the Wasatch Front. There is a good tributary that adds water just below the dam. This year was a stellar runoff year and Stillwater Dam was releasing about 200 cfs into the late summer.
