Boulder Creek, South

01. Rollinsville to Pinecliffe (Alto Alto Section)(Alto Alto SBC)

Reach banner

Warning:

The typical take out is near the timberland fire department. However, if you miss that take out (or plan to take out in the town of Pinecliffe), there is a riverwide fence/pipe directly after the bridge that's bad news bears.

Make sure to take out/scout/portage. At low flows you'll run right into the pipe. At higher flows, you may be able to paddle over it, but a swim would be ugly here.
