Trip Report

ReporterBrett Hagerty

In response to the previous comments about this section - The four mile stretch from 220 to the picnic bridge is a great run for those who are wanting a beginner creek experience. It is class III with some pools but lots of continuous water. Open canoes should consider this an expert run, but it is not class V. Landslide rapid could be considered a III+ at higher levels.
