Access PointHazardClass IV
Dinkey Siphon rapid

Description

A large pipe crosses overhead, carrying water from the NF Kings to the Kings River Powerhouse. A long steep slalom rapid starts immediately after. If you see a huge spray of water coming from river right, near the bottom of the rapid, PG&E is releasing 10 to 25 cfs from a valve. (required by FERC for fish) Beware! The spray is strong enough to knock you over.
