River Description

Due to construction access roads may have changed. The takeout is at the bridge right above the start of the Box Canyon. There used to be an access road up the river right side of the valley from the bridge several years ago, it may still be there. Access to the river was gained by a short hike followed by a steep smooth rock descent to the river. If you reach the river at a point that is extremely incised you are likely looking into the Mine section and are too far upstream.

 

The run has one fairly long class IV, I believe it is called landslide due to the large rock slide on the river left bank at the top of the rapid. Last Tango is the ledge located just upstream of the takeout bridge and can be run many different ways.
