Great long class 2 paddle, lots of fun wave trains, swift water, heavenly air in this wilderness corridor. Just a couple little easy wood portages... nothing too tricky. Last 3rd of the paddle got just a little scrapey it a few places. I wouldn't want to do this run at much lower flow. It took about 3.5 hours for 14.5 miles. We put in at the 410 bridge in Buckley and took out at the disc golf course bridge.
