The North Fork is very small and full of strainers but the West Fork is lots of fun. Park at the bridge that crosses the west Fork. Carry your boat up the access road to Cogswell Res. as far as you want. You can scout everything as you walk. The run is generaly class III at flows of 100-200 cfs and gets a bit harder at higher flows. Bear Creek is a major tributary and is also a fun run if it's flowing.

Either take out at your car or continue down to the Off Highway Vehicle Area and take out there.
