When the Guest is running at a medium flow [about 1 ft on the middle pillar of the bridge], the run is continuous Class IV+, and contains a mandatory portage about 1/3 into the run. AND you better know where it is!! If you love creekin in the Appalachians, then find someone who knows the river & the lines, and you will not be disappointed. Wood is a constant issue so be very watchful. There was a massive snow storm in December 2009 that resulted in a lot of wood in the stream bed.
