Not a TR, just comments.
1. This is just under 9 miles, not 17.2 as entered. The Google map mileage for this route is broken right now. You can work around Google's weirdness with some creativity to see a closer distance approximation.
2. There are at least 2 significant rapids from what I've read and found on Youtube. 3 Rocks (III/IV) and Spike Buck (III/IV). Both see regular swimmers from rafting parties.
3. 3 Rocks is mostly a pool drop.
4. Spike Buck is ~1/4 mile long and technical at most water levels. You would not want to swim if you could help it. It begins just below the optional put-in/takeout of Spike Buck Recreation Site, which is about 4 miles below Pinnacle Rock.
