Frain Ranch

An access point at the upstream end of Frain Ranch on river left provides good access about a half mile upstream of Caldera (and is better than the access point closer to Caldera). This access is sometimes used by those just doing the section from Frain Ranch to Stateline or Access 6 where the majority of the challenging whitewater is found. A high-clearance vehicle and some grit are necessary for the shuttle along river right. but it is possible to get a raft trailer down to the water's edge.
