Has some box canyons to paddle through that are far above the trailhead. Lots of wood to watch out for up there.
Hiked up about a mile to the confluence with Swift Creek. Paddled to the reservoir and then below to the bridge at Yellowstone Campground. Surprisingly free of wood (unlike the Uinta). Fast class II-III. Would be better with a bit more water, say 500CFS. ~6 miles. This looks to go for another 8 miles to where it crosses rt 7. Nice packraft.
