Dave Pearton, David Wilson, and Thomas O'Keefe ran the section from Wildcat Creek to Dingford Creek at approximately 800 cfs on the Middle Fork Snoqualmie gauge. Flow on this section was probably a little more than half that. This was about the lower limit of flow for this section.

This was a fun section with class IV whitewater but short and a long drive up a poorly maintained road.

To see scout the last rapid and get an idea of the character of the run, drive up to mile 18.0 on the Middle Fork Road at the Dingford Creek trailhead. It's a short walk down a trail to a bridge that crosses the river.
