Trip Reports
Log in to add a reportThere is a 6' log spanning the low water entry into what I think is Bench rapids.. the log is maybe 2' underwater @ flow of 475cfs Aug,29th 2019. Looks like you could pop over it but heads up.
The grand finally of the Bend, this rapid has an infinite number of lines but is often entered on the right before moving back to the center.
This trail is riverside for the meat of the run and can be used to scout, portage, or carry up to run laps of the best section.

View up the Nooksack River toward Horseshoe Bend.
This run can be paddled at lower levels, down to about 400 cfs. It does get a little rocky though. The length of the actual run is only about 1 mile up from the takeout bridge.
