Good times on the Lochsa. We had a large group with paddlers who came and went over the course of a 20 mile run from Wilderness Gateway down to Apgar. The first 2.5 miles from Wilderness Gateway is class III at this flow. Some took out there and a few continued on down through a couple more rapids before exiting above the big drops at Bloody Mary and Grim Reaper. Several rejoined the group at Split Creek Access and we continued on down to Apgar.
