Little Clear Creek

Me and Brandon ran Little Clear on 3-21-20 and found that within the first mile there were a couple areas that had trees down across the creek. We went at a low flow and had no problems portaging but at a higher flow it could be more challenging. -Dave

Ran this 1/2/11 with pretty good flow. Awesome creek run. We took a raft down and wondered if anyone else has attemped it or if it was a first decent for a raft?

Brandon runs the third drop of Triple Drop.

The boulder on river right has a cave under it.

Checking the Level: Walk straight down the left side of the bridge. You will see a small footpath leading straight down to the creek. Carry a paddle down with you. From the edge of the creek where the footpath ends, you want to have a full paddle blade in depth for a minimum level. When I say this, I mean that it has to cover the ENTIRE blade and should be lapping up on the shaft itself. Again, this is a good minimum level, but an inch or two can make all the difference on this run.

According to a boatertalk post, the mandatory portage is no longer mandatory.

Did this run Sat. 11.13.04. Clear Creek @ Lily Bridge was 1,240 and dropping. The water at the put-in just barely covered the blades of our paddles: definitely a minimum level. We ran everything. The

Ran Little Clear 9/8/2004 as Clear was peaking at 1600 cfs. Little Clear was medium+. The mandatory portage above triple drop is now clear. There is a fair bit of wood in the good section unfortunately. All of it was visible from upstream. There is a pine tree across the top of Oh Yeah!. We made it worse by trying to move it. Someone could cut it out with a Sven saw on a future run, or just chop out the whole run.

As of may 30, 2004, there was a big log in the middle of the last class IV

Triple Drop

This is looking down at the last two drops of triple drop. You can see the rapid snakes left.
This drop is just sweet.
nick is just droping over second drop. First drop is right behind him
I am a little sideways here. Oh well. This drop is pretty safe. The wall to my right is a little undercut, but not dangerous. Only thing I think might be a problem is a high water hydraulic at the base of the rapid. It is real easy to boof over though
Running this drop will put a smile on your face
Boof it down the middle. Scenic drop.

He cleaned it. Didn't even have to stroke it.

Prettiest spot on the run
