40 Foot Falls

Waterfall / Large DropClass VI36.77057, -119.21715

Description

This is a two tiered waterfall, that will be a portage on river left at most flows and for most people.  Rick Smith ran it but suggests that the best flow to run this drop is not the best flow for the rest of the creek.

My vague reccollection is of a tight junky upper drop landing in a very narrow pool (a couple feet wide) then dropping clean another 30 feet to a big deep pool.

The portage involved scrambling up then over and along cliffs on the left.
