River Description
In case you're wondering, sections of this creek have been run. Colby Mackley has even strided it. This is one of the steeper creeks in the region and strictly experts only territory. There are some big drops on this thing. Check out Waterfalls of the Pacific Northwest site for a picture of Racehorse Falls. You'll have to scout out your own access and pick out the sections you want to run if any (lat/long do not represent actual put-in and take-out).
