This is a manky low quality continuous creek. Historical river descriptions claim that it can be a wild class V ride at high water, but high water never seems to happen. It sometimes attracts aspiring class IV creekboaters due to its relatively easy rating. Bring the mank boat and don't expect to take any deep paddle strokes. This is a very narrow riverbed that doesn't need much water to "run."
