Canyon Creek (S.F. Still. trib)

There's an alternate put in along here for those looking to add on a few miles (and 2-3 class III rapids) to the lower/hampton tree section -and aren't afraid of dragging your boat almost a mile. A mile into green mountain road you will find an overgrown road off to the left (can be seen on google maps). Park here and drag your boat about 0.8mile to a dead end along this road, and then get ready to bushwhack downhill a short steep stretch until you reach the river. From here the section will start out with about 2 or 3 class III rapids, followed by some fairly consistent II+ until you get to the hampton tree bridge.
