We did this in early March 2002. There is nothing class 4 about this. There's hardly anything class 3 about it. Maybe at VERY high levels it may push to a class 3 creek but when we did it, it was mostly some class 2 ledges and 1 drop that may turn into a class 3 at high flows. It would be a fun run for an intro to creeking but your time would be better spent on Anewakkee Creek.
