Klamath

Quick float from Big Bar to Aikens to do some camping and fishing.

Big Bar made a nice put-in. Takeout at Aikens was pretty rough for two people with a raft and gear, but if you have a true 4x4 vehicle you could probably back down pretty close to the eddy above the bar and land there. Nice thing is the access points are so close I just walked up Hwy 96 to get the car.

Water was big and pushy but not too technical at 3k CFS. The Bluff Creek rapid lives up to its II+ designation. Nice clean channel through the middle, but you wouldn't want to drift in sideways and unaware, and there was a decent sized hole on the right.

Scouting river access sites from Dolans Bar to Weitchpec on Day 22 and 23 of Paddle Tribal Waters Source to Sea Descent of the Klamath River.
