Cherry Bomb Falls

Waterfall / Large DropClass IV+
Cherry Bomb Falls

Description

A small but intimidating waterfall in an impressive gorge.     Scout on river left.   At lower flows at least, it is a fun drop.  In some years it collects trees, so must be portaged no matter what.

Portage also on river left with some difficulty if need be.  The left side portage requires hiking up steep dirt and rocks.  Then traverse easy ledges to a brush filled gulley.   Nice slabs at the base of the gulley allow easy lanching.

Confident rock climbers can also traverse the steep slabs on river right side.   Climbers can get to the eddy at the lip of the falls to set safety or line boats and such.
