So bring your skills and your sense of adventure, because this run although woody is well worth the blood and sweat of the portages (at least 5 mandatory) with 1 being down right hellish. The beginning rapids are fun and the ever twisting river (hence the name rattlesnake) will keep your heart rate up and eyes focus for potential river stopping wood. There is at least one class IV and it’s got a river wide log, but at the right flows and blood to alcohol level you should be able to buff over it. Enjoy the remoteness of the run (feels like a class V exploratory trip) and don’t plan on hiking out, once on the river your happy A#@ is committed.
